Every time someone asks me what the most popular food ingredient on our site is, they are a little surprised when I tell them it’s probably chicken. I’m not sure why it surprises them – maybe they thought the fancier, more “special occasion” ingredients would be more popular. But let’s face it; chicken is pretty inexpensive, lean and healthy, and not too much of a fuss to cook. Why wouldn’t it be popular?
I love chicken, too, but when it comes to chicken thighs, I’ve had bad luck. Or at least that’s what I like to call it! It sounds better than lack of cooking skills, haha!
Whenever I’ve made chicken thighs for dinner, they’ve turned out either kind of dry or somehow tasteless. I thought I needed to use more seasoning, but I was totally wrong. It’s the technique that plays the biggest part in cooking chicken, and I had no idea how to do it right.
One day, after another unsuccessful chicken dinner, I decided to do something about it. I read a gazillion recipes and compared the techniques, to find out where I was going wrong. The following week I made chicken thigh using this recipe – oh my gosh, it was like night and day!

Quick Tip: Feel free to add your favorite seasonings.
Soaking in milk, or buttermik before baking/ cooking/air frying and chicken thighs will be juicy and flavorful…sometimes they are only in there for five minutes, but it still helps
You know what I do ? I have a smart phone, so i go on email and read the receipt and send it to my self and put them all in a Folder. It doesn’t cost me ink and i can get to them when ever i want.
I also think that one of the PLUS es of this receipt is having the skin’s on! They give the meat so much moisture! I don’t eat the skin’s, But cooking chicken that has no bone or skin is only good if its in a gravy or a casserole!

This recipe is OK but very bland. It’s the default way to bake any chicken. I prefer spicier recipes.
Wish I could print these great recipes. There are so many good ones
Lois, look at the recipe manager called “Paprika.” It is fabulous! You can copy the URL for a recipe into the app and it will capture the recipe for you. Then you can print it from the app. You can get Paprika for your smart phone, table, or PC. I have it for all three, and it syncs them on all the devices regardless of which device I’m using to capture the recipe. It is a wonderful app!!! (I am in no way affiliated with the Paprika app, I promise! I just love it so much!!)
Copy and paste them if you can’t print..
You know what I do ? I have a smart phone, so i go on email and rease the receipt and send it yo my self and put them all in a Folder. It doesn’t cost me ink and i can get to them when ever i wanT
I don’t cook any meat without garlic & fish or chicken I also use paprika or a little chili powder. I can’t see that only salt/pepper would keep my kids at the table. Mom only fried/roasted chicken in cast iron which is a yyuuuugggge key to cooking chicken, that is the only plus I see …
I hv NOT tried this recipe, yet, just remarking on decades of eating at Mom’s table & adding a few things in my cooking years …
Add some oregano thyme lemon juice and lemon zest and a dollop
of butter before baking it in the oven.delicious?
I like lemon pepper seasoning for chicken. Believe it or not but Nutmeg is also very good. I mix the lemon pepper seasoning and flour with just a 1/4 teaspoon of nutmeg . Of course if you only like highly seasoned things maybe that wouldn’t work for you.
Anothert secret is low and slow, bake in a shallow baking dish with about 1/2 of water or stock with some goya seasonings.
