Toss in as many Garlic Cloves as you like let them saute in the oil for a minute.
Add Chicken Thighs skin side down and brown them till the skin is crispy and brown.
Remove from burner, make sure to use an oven mit or a towel the cast iron handle is going to be very hot! 
Place skillet in the preheated oven and cook chicken to an internal temp of 160 F.  Checking every so often with your instant read temp probe.
