Description

Soft, tender meat, not much fat, crispy skin when everything goes well, some potatoes and veggies on the side.

Ingredients

  • 8  Chicken Thighs
  • 2 Tablespoons Vegetable Oil
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Paprika

Preparation

Preheat oven to 200ºC (400ºF). Line a baking tray with baking paper or aluminum foil.

Place chicken thighs in a large bowl, pour oil over them and massage the chicken with your hands until everything is coated in oil. Place the chicken on the baking tray skin-side down at first. Generously sprinkle the underside with salt, pepper and paprika (or use other spices to your liking). Turn chicken pieces skin-side up and generously sprinkle the skin with the spices as well.

Bake for 1 hour or until juices run clear and the skin is golden brown and crispy. Serve with roasted potatoes and tomato salad.
