Time 1h5m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 stick butter, softened
1 large shallot, minced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1 clove garlic, crushed
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 ½ tablespoons soy sauce
1 ½ tablespoons red wine
1 tablespoon white sugar
6 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs, excess fat trimmed
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cups chicken stock

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).

Yield 2 to 4 main course servings

Number Of Ingredients 3

6 skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs (about 2 1/4 pounds)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 475°F. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a 12" cast-iron or heavy nonstick skillet over high heat until hot but not smoking. Nestle chicken in skillet, skin side down, and cook 2 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-high; continue cooking skin side down, occasionally rearranging chicken thighs and rotating pan to evenly distribute heat, until fat renders and skin is golden brown, about 12 minutes.
  • Transfer skillet to oven and cook 13 more minutes. Flip chicken; continue cooking until skin crisps and meat is cooked through, about 5 minutes longer. Transfer to a plate; let rest 5 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • Use a well-seasoned skillet. This will help prevent the chicken from sticking and will give it a nice crispy crust.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet. Cook the chicken in batches if necessary, so that each piece has plenty of room to brown.
  • Be patient. It takes time to get the chicken crispy, so don't rush the process. Cook the chicken over medium heat and flip it occasionally, until it is cooked through and golden brown.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken. The chicken is cooked when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Serve the chicken with your favorite sides. Some popular sides for crispy chicken thighs include mashed potatoes, green beans, and corn.

Conclusion:

Crispy chicken thighs are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a crispy chicken thigh dish that is sure to impress your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal, give crispy chicken thighs a try.
