Tips:
- Use a flavorful spice blend: The combination of ginger, paprika, cumin, and coriander creates a delicious and aromatic spice blend. Feel free to adjust the proportions of each spice to suit your taste preferences.
- Marinate the chicken thighs: Marinating the chicken thighs in the yogurt, spice blend, and lemon juice helps to tenderize the meat and infuse it with flavor. If you're short on time, you can marinate the chicken for as little as 30 minutes, but longer is better.
- Sear the chicken thighs: Searing the chicken thighs in a hot skillet before baking helps to develop a crispy skin and lock in the juices. Be sure to sear the chicken thighs in batches so that they don't overcrowd the pan and steam.
- Roast the chicken thighs: Roasting the chicken thighs in the oven allows them to cook through and develop a golden brown color. The roasting time will vary depending on the size of the chicken thighs, so be sure to check them for doneness before removing them from the oven.
- Serve with your favorite sides: Ginger and spice chicken thighs can be served with a variety of sides, such as rice, roasted vegetables, or a simple green salad. You can also add a dollop of yogurt or sour cream to the chicken thighs before serving.
Conclusion:
Ginger and spice chicken thighs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner.
