I know it feels like boneless, skinless chicken breasts are the coolest thing since sliced bread. I mean, they are everywhere right now. But we can’t get enough of the tender, juicy dark meat that chicken thighs have to offer. So often chicken is overcooked and dry, and you never know what you’re going to get when given chicken at dinner. Rest assured, these crispy oven baked chicken thighs are everything you’ve ever wanted out of a piece of chicken. It doesn’t get any better than this! This recipe is so versatile, you can prepare any cut of chicken this way. Are you a drumsticks lover? Us too. Chicken breasts? Leave that bone in and skin on and you’ll never see chicken breasts the same again. You can even cut up a whole chicken and use it all in this recipe! Pair it with your favorite sides, like a good mashed potato, grilled corn, and crusty baguette, and you have yourself a to-die-for meal! Don’t take our word for it though, get cooking!
Can I use any cut of chicken? This recipe does not discriminate. You can use any and all of the chicken here, from wings to breasts. For juicy meat and crispy skin, keep the bone in and skin on. What should I serve with Crispy Oven Baked Chicken Thighs? Keep things old fashioned and serve with creamy mashed potatoes and your favorite vegetable on the side. Also, good bread never disappoints on the side of oven baked chicken. Can I cook vegetables with the chicken in the same dish? Single sheet pan recipes save SO much extra time and effort. So long as your dish is large enough, you can easily add cubed potatoes or any other vegetable. Just make sure to toss your veggies in oil first and check appropriate cooking times so you don’t under or over cook them.
