BAKED MARINATED CHICKEN THIGHS



Baked Marinated Chicken Thighs image

Mix everything in one zip-top bag and marinate overnight. Delicious as leftovers-easy and savory, my husband and his buddies all loved this! We served with Trader Joe's® brown rice the first time, then with Trader Joe's® country potatoes in the photos. Both were a hit! Enjoy!

Provided by PatientFire

Time 9h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 ½ cups Worcestershire sauce
1 ½ cups water
½ cup pearl onions
3 tablespoons pickling spice
1 tablespoon whole black peppercorns
2 teaspoons crushed garlic
1 cube beef bouillon, crushed
5 large bay leaves
12 (6 ounce) bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs

Steps:

  • Combine Worcestershire sauce, water, pearl onions, pickling spice, peppercorns, garlic, bouillon, and bay leaves in a resealable plastic bag. Add chicken thighs, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator, 8 hours to overnight.
  • When ready to cook, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Empty the contents of the resealable bag into a casserole dish. Turn chicken thighs so the skin is facing up.
  • Bake in the preheated oven, turning once, until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 45 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Turn chicken thighs once more so the skin is facing up. Turn on the broiler to high and broil until golden, about 2 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality marinade. The marinade is what will give your chicken thighs their flavor, so it's important to use a good one. Look for a marinade that contains a balance of acid, oil, and herbs and spices. The acid will help to tenderize the chicken, the oil will help to keep it moist, and the herbs and spices will add flavor.
  • Let the chicken thighs marinate for at least 30 minutes, but no longer than 24 hours. This will give the marinade time to penetrate the chicken and infuse it with flavor. If you marinate the chicken for too long, it can become tough.
  • Cook the chicken thighs over medium heat. This will help to prevent them from drying out. If you cook the chicken thighs over high heat, they will brown too quickly and the inside will be undercooked.
  • Use a meat thermometer to make sure the chicken thighs are cooked through. The chicken thighs are done when they reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the chicken thighs rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Baked marinated boneless chicken thighs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. By following these tips, you can ensure that your chicken thighs are cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor.
