CRISPY CHICKEN THIGHS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
• On a cutting board, pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Season the chicken on both sides with salt and pepper.

Flip the chicken over and continue to cook until the other side is golden brown, about 5 minutes.
• Add the lemon slices to the pan around the chicken. Transfer to the oven and bake until cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C), 15-20 minutes depending on the size of the thighs.
• Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving with your favorite side dishes.

ONE-SKILLET CRISPY CHICKEN THIGHS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Mix butter, shallot, parsley, garlic, salt, and pepper together in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave until melted, about 1 minute. Add soy sauce, wine, and sugar; mix well.
• Pat chicken completely dry. Season both sides with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet until shimmering. Arrange thighs skin-side down in the skillet. Brown in batches until crispy enough to release from the pan, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain excess fat.
• Spoon some of the butter mixture onto the skinless side of the thighs. Flip over and pour the rest of the mixture around the thighs, avoiding the skins. Add chicken stock slowly until about 3/4 of the way up the thighs. Scrape up browned bits into the sauce.
• Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 40 to 50 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

• Combine mayonnaise and paprika in a bowl; mix well.
• Mix panko and garlic powder together in another bowl.
• Spread mayonnaise-paprika mixture on each chicken thigh; press into panko mixture to coat. Place in the prepared baking pan; spritz thighs with cooking spray.
• Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

CRISPY SKIN CHICKEN THIGHS RECIPE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients. Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat to 425 F (220 C/Gas 7).
• Pat the thighs dry with paper towels. Sprinkle generously on both sides with salt and pepper.
• Heat the oil in a large, heavy-duty, oven-safe skillet (cast iron is perfect) over medium-high heat.
• When the oil shimmers, arrange the chicken thighs in the skillet, skin-side down. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the skin is well browned, moving the thighs occasionally to make sure they are browning evenly. Do not turn them over.
• Place the skillet in the oven and continue cooking, skin-side down, until mostly cooked through, another 10 to 15 minutes. Turn over the thighs and continue cooking for 5 minutes longer.
• To test for doneness, insert a food thermometer into the thickest part of a thigh. The minimum safe temperature for chicken and other poultry is 165 F (74 C). Serve and enjoy.

MUSTARD-CRUSTED CRISPY CHICKEN THIGHS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Place a rack on a rimmed baking sheet.
• Trim any fat off of chicken thighs and season with a light coating of adobo and pepper.
• Stir Dijon and melted butter together in a shallow bowl until you have a glossy, buttery mixture. Combine bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese in another bowl.
• Dip chicken thighs in the Dijon mixture until evenly coated, then dredge in the bread crumb mixture. Transfer thighs to the prepared baking sheet and spray the tops with cooking spray.
• Bake in the preheated oven without flipping until no longer pink in the centers, 30 to 35 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Garnish with parsley to serve.

CRISPY-SKIN CHICKEN THIGHS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/fan 200/gas 7. Wipe the chicken thighs with kitchen paper. Finely grate the zest from 1 lemon and squeeze the juice from both. Mix in a shallow dish with the tarragon, 1 tbsp of the oil, and some salt and pepper. Slash the skin of each chicken thigh three times, then turn in the marinade. The chicken pieces can be cooked immediately or left in the fridge for up to a day.
• Cut the potatoes into wedges and spread over a roasting tin. Toss in the remaining oil and sprinkle with paprika. Set a rack on top and arrange the chicken pieces on the rack. Bake for 30-40 mins, until the chicken is well browned and the potatoes tender. Serve with a simple green salad.
