Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs (about 2 pounds)
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon neutral oil, such as canola or safflower oil
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon lemon pepper seasoning
1/2 teaspoon cayenne

Steps:

  • Pat the chicken with paper towels until very dry; transfer to a plate or baking sheet. Brush the chicken thighs all over with 1 tablespoon oil.
  • Heat a large cast-iron grill pan over medium heat. Stir together the salt, paprika, cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, lemon pepper seasoning and cayenne in a small bowl. Sprinkle the chicken all over with the spice mixture.
  • Brush the grill pan with the remaining 1 teaspoon oil. Add the chicken thighs to the grill pan skin-side down. Cook, rotating the pan on the burner several times to ensure even browning, until the skin has deep-brown grill marks (check the underside by gently lifting up each thigh with tongs), 10 to 12 minutes. Rotate each chicken thigh 90 degrees and continue grilling until deep brown crosshatch marks are visible and the skin is quite brown all over, about 5 minutes.
  • Flip the chicken thighs over and grill the flesh side until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh (near but not touching bone) registers 160 degrees F, 6 to 9 minutes. Let the thighs rest 5 minutes before serving.

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).

MISS GILLIAN'S CRISPY FRIED CHICKEN THIGHS



Miss Gillian's Crispy Fried Chicken Thighs image

On a popular TV cook-off show, contestant Miss Gillian won with a recipe for crispy fried chicken that I've imitated here, to excellent family reviews.

Provided by KDcook

Time 8h40m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 pounds bone-in chicken thighs, skin removed
1 pound chicken drumsticks, skin removed
4 cups buttermilk
2 tablespoons hot sauce
5 cloves garlic, crushed
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 pinch poultry seasoning
1 quart canola oil for frying, or as needed

Steps:

  • Place chicken thighs and drumsticks in a large bowl or plastic container, along with buttermilk, hot sauce, and garlic cloves. Stir and coat the chicken, cover, and soak for 8 hours, or overnight, in the refrigerator.
  • Remove chicken from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade.
  • Combine flour, salt, pepper, and poultry seasoning on a dinner plate. Dredge chicken in the flour mixture.
  • Heat 2 inches oil in a large frying pan to 370 degrees F (188 degrees C). Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Place 4 or 5 pieces chicken at a time into the hot oil; about half of each piece should be submerged in oil. Cook, being careful not to poke or touch the pieces more than is necessary, as this cracks the coating and leads to greasy chicken, until golden and no longer pink in the centers, about 4 minutes per side. Place on paper towels to drain. Repeat with remaining chicken, adding more oil as necessary. Transfer chicken pieces to a large roasting pan.
  • Roast chicken in the preheated oven until crispy, about 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Tips:

  • Brine the chicken thighs for at least 30 minutes. This will help to keep them moist and flavorful.
  • Use a variety of spices and herbs. This will give the chicken thighs a complex flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the chicken thighs from cooking evenly.
  • Cook the chicken thighs over medium heat. This will help to prevent them from burning.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken thighs are cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the chicken thighs rest before serving. This will help to keep the juices in the meat.
