Heat 1 tbsp of the garlic-infused oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the chicken thighs skin-side down and sear undisturbed for 5 minutes, until the skin is deep golden and releases easily from the pan. Flip and sear the second side for 2 minutes, then transfer the thighs to a plate. Discard any rendered fat from the skillet.
