Crispy Chicken Thighs

Step 1

Season chicken lightly with spice rub or salt and pepper.

Step 2

Heat a layer of fat or oil in a large oven safe skillet on the stove top (preferably cast iron).

Step 3

Place chicken skin side down in the hot skillet, for 10 - 15 minutes until chicken skin is beginning to brown and crisp. Shift chicken once or twice in the skillet to make sure it’s not sticking.

Step 4

Transfer to a 425 degree oven and continue cooking chicken skin side down for an additional ten minutes.

Step 5

Turn chicken over, and cook about 5 more minutes, until chicken is cooked through (165 degrees F)

Step 6

Enjoy!
