Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

3/4 cup panko (Japanese breadcrumbs)
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons thyme leaves, plus 3 sprigs
8 skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs, patted dry

Season chicken thighs on both sides with salt and pepper. Arrange skin side up a rimmed baking sheet and smear all over skin side of thighs. Working with 1 piece at a time, firmly press chicken, skin side down, into panko so crumbs adhere. Place back on baking sheet skin side up.

Time 55m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/4 cups panko Japanese-style bread crumbs
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt

2 teaspoons mayonnaise

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray a baking pan with non-stick cooking spray.
  • In a medium bowl, mix together Panko, paprika, thyme, garlic salt, and seasoning salt. Then stir in olive oil. (The oil allows the crumbs to get color in the oven).
  • In a separate medium bowl, beat the egg with the milk.
  • Roll each thigh in the egg wash and then into the seasoned Panko. Make sure to pat the crumbs onto the chicken to make an even coating and then place the thighs in the pan.
  • Bake at 400 for 35 - 45 minutes or until juices run clear.
  • Sauce: In a small bowl, mix the honey, spicy brown mustard, and mayonnaise. Serve this sauce on the side for those who like to dip their chicken.

Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Chicken     Baked and Roasted

Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

½ cup plain fat-free Greek yogurt
¼ cup jarred roasted red peppers - drained, patted dry and chopped
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
¼ teaspoon dried basil
⅛ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon black pepper
⅛ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon onion powder
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 pound chicken tenders
1 cup Italian-seasoned panko (Japanese bread crumbs)
1 large egg, lightly beaten

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Combine Greek yogurt, red peppers, balsamic vinegar, basil, salt, pepper, and 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder in a mini food processor. Blend until smooth and refrigerate dipping sauce until ready to use.
  • In a small bowl combine 1/4 teaspoon each of garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Sprinkle over chicken tenders and toss to coat evenly. Set aside.
  • Toast panko crumbs in a skillet over medium-high heat until a golden brown color, 4 to 5 minutes. Place panko into a shallow dish. Crack egg into a separate shallow dish. Dip chicken tenders first into egg, letting excess drip off, then coat with panko. Place tenders on the prepared baking sheet.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, turning over halfway through, 12 to 15 minutes total. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Serve with the dipping sauce.

Tips:
