Simple Roasted Chicken Thighs

Sometimes you want something quick and easy for dinner. This is a great recipe that takes less than an hour, with most of the time waiting on a dry brine to do it's thing. I did a double batch so we would have leftovers.

Ingredients:

4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs 

Salt to taste 

Pepper to taste

1/4 teaspoon baking powder

Start by removing the thighs from their package and pat dry.

Place them on a baking sheet.

Lightly sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Using a high pinching method, lightly coat the chicken with baking powder. This will give you an extra crispy skin. Rest in the refrigerator for an hour.After resting in the refrigerator, lightly coat the thighs with olive oil.

When close to the end of resting time, preheat oven to 325 degrees.

Place the chicken in the oven and bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the internal temperature is 185 degrees. This will produce a more tender and juicy meat.
