  1. Season the chicken thighs with salt and black pepper. Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat until foamy.
  2. Add the chicken thighs to the pan and sear on both sides until golden brown, about 5 minutes each side. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  3. In the same pan, add the chopped onion, minced garlic, sliced celery, and diced carrots. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are softened and aromatic.
  4. Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir, cooking for an additional two minutes to form a light roux.
  5. Pour in the chicken stock and add the thyme. Stir well, ensuring no lumps form. Return the chicken to the pan.
  6. Add the peeled and cubed potatoes, along with the Worcestershire sauce. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes are tender.
  7. Before serving, taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if necessary. Serve hot, garnished with grated Parmesan on top.
