Baked Fried Chicken Thighs Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking pan with parchment paper.
• Combine flour, 1 pinch cayenne, 1 pinch garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a shallow bowl.
• Whisk eggs in a second bowl.
• Combine panko bread crumbs with 1 pinch cayenne, 1 pinch garlic powder, salt, and pepper in another shallow bowl.
• Dip chicken thighs into the flour mixture, followed by beaten eggs, and then into the panko mixture. Transfer to the prepared pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until coating is golden and chicken thighs are no longer pink in the centers, about 40 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Set a rack on a foil-lined baking sheet. Spray the rack generously with cooking spray.
• Finely grind the bagel chips and cereal together in a food processor. Transfer the crumbs to a gallon-size plastic bag. Add the oil, salt, cayenne, paprika and ground pepper and toss to mix thoroughly. Whisk the light mayonnaise and Dijon mustard together in a medium shallow bowl.
• Add the chicken to the mayonnaise mixture and turn to coat all the pieces evenly. Drop the chicken into the plastic bag, seal and shake until each piece is evenly coated. Place the coated pieces on the prepared rack. Spray the chicken pieces evenly with cooking spray.
• Bake until the coating crisps and browns and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the pieces registers 160 degrees F, 35 to 40 minutes.
• Transfer to a platter and serve hot or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Place a rack in a roasting pan or on a baking sheet.
• Rinse the chicken in cold water; pat dry. In a wide bowl or on a plate, season the flour with salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Dredge each chicken piece through the flour so it's fully coated, tap against the bowl to shake off excess flour and set aside. Discard the flour.
• Here comes the part kids like best: Crush the cornflakes by placing them in a big resealable plastic bag, carefully pressing the bag to push out the air. Seal up the bag (with as little air inside as possible) and run over the flakes with a rolling pin. Open the bag and pour the crushed flakes into a wide bowl or onto a plate.
• In a large bowl (big enough to dredge the chicken pieces), mix the buttermilk, mustard, cayenne pepper, paprika and sage. Give each floured chicken piece a good buttermilk bath and then roll in the cornflake crumbs.
• Arrange the chicken pieces on the rack and place in the hot oven. Cook for 15 to 20 minutes, lower the heat to 375 degrees and cook for another 25 to 30 minutes, until cooked through and crispy. The juices should run clear when the meat is pierced with a knife. Serve with Easy Greens.

Steps:

• Place the chicken pieces in a large bowl and pour the buttermilk over them. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Combine the flour, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Take the chicken out of the buttermilk and coat each piece thoroughly with the flour mixture. Pour the oil into a large heavy-bottomed stockpot to a depth of 1-inch and heat to 360 degrees F on a thermometer.
• Working in batches, carefully place several pieces of chicken in the oil and fry for about 3 minutes on each side until the coating is a light golden brown (it will continue to brown in the oven). Don't crowd the pieces. Remove the chicken from the oil and place each piece on a metal baking rack set on a sheet pan. Allow the oil to return to 360 degrees F before frying the next batch. When all the chicken is fried, bake for 30 to 40 minutes, until the chicken is no longer pink inside. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Wash chicken, pat dry and set aside.
• In bowl beat half and half with egg.
• In another bowl combine bread crumbs, potato flakes, garlic salt and pepper.
• Dip chicken in egg mixture and then in bread crumb mixture.
• Sprinkle with butter and oil.
• Bake at 400°F for 35 minutes.
• Increase heat to 450°F and bake an additional 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°. Line a large baking pan with foil and lightly grease or spray with nonstick cooking spray.
• Wash chicken thighs and trim excess fat and skin. Remove skin, if desired. Pat dry and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Combine the melted butter with mustard, honey or syrup, and garlic powder in a shallow bowl. In another shallow bowl, combine the panko crumbs with shredded Parmesan, paprika, 3/4 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and parsley.
• Brush or rub the chicken thighs with the butter and mustard mixture then press all sides in the panko mixture to coat thoroughly. Place on prepared baking sheet. Bake for 40 to 50 minutes, or until juices run clear when chicken is pierced with a fork.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Spray a 15 1/2" x 10 1/2" baking sheet with cooking spray.
• In a bowl combine bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, cornmeal, ground red pepper, garlic powder and Old Bay if using. In another bowl beat the egg white and salt together until foamy.
• Dip each thigh in egg, then in the crumb mixture. Place "skin-side" up on baking sheet. Spray thighs lightly with the olive oil cooking spray.
• Bake 35 to 45 minutes or until juices run clear and the coating is crispy.
• Serve garnished with green onions.

Steps:

• Place the chicken parts in a shallow dish, whisk together the buttermilk and pepper, pour over the chicken. Set aside.
• Next we're going to set up our assembly line. In a container with a tight fitting lid add the flour, salt, and pepper. Give this a good shake (with the lid on!) and set aside. Next, in a microwave safe shallow dish add the olive oil and butter, microwave just long enough to melt the butter, it took between 20 - 30 seconds in my microwave. Set next to the flour container. In another lidded container place the final three ingredients, close the lid and give it a good shake. Grab a baking sheet and line it with foil. Normally I'm all about a little olive oil or cooking spray, but humor me. If you are completely texture oriented and need the chicken as crispy as humanly possible get a baking rack to place over the sheet.
• Preheat the oven to 375°F.
• Find something to do for 5 minutes or so. Go wild, plan a side dish.
• Starting with the smallest pieces: wings, drumsticks, thighs, then breasts, place one or two pieces in the flour container and give it a good shake. One at a time, remove the pieces from the flour, shaking off any excess, and dip in the oil / butter mixture. Shake the pieces again and add to the final container, giving a good shake to coat the piece evenly. Place on the baking sheet or rack.
• Once all of the pieces have moved through your assembly line place in the oven for 40 - 60 minutes. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the largest pieces have reached 165°F If using a whole chicken it may be necessary to cook the breasts longer than the wings and drumsticks, simply set them aside on a paper towel. If the coating on larger pieces looks as though it may brown too quickly, use a small piece of foil as a tent to shield the coating.
• Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place melted butter in a shallow dish. Mix crushed cornflakes, Parmesan cheese, parsley flakes, seasoned salt, salt, and pepper together in another shallow bowl.
• Dip chicken thighs in butter and then in cornflake mixture. Place in a baking dish.
• Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Steps:

• Rinse the chicken and pat dry with paper towels.
• Combine in a plastic bag: sake, soy sauce, oil, ginger, garlic, and half the scallions. Add the chicken, cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
• Preheat oven to 375°.
• Spray a half baking pan with nonstick spray.
• Place panko bread crumbs in a large bowl, season with salt and pepper, and stir well to combine.
• Take chicken pieces from bag and roll and press them in the seasoned panko. Place the breaded chicken on the baking pan dish in a single layer.
• Bake for 30 minutes, turn the pieces over, and bake for 30 minute more or until cooked through.
• While chicken is baking, make the sauce:
• Whisk hoisin, chili sauce, vinegar, and 2 tablespoons soy sauce together. Place chicken in a single layer on a platter or on individual plates and drizzle with sauce and scatter over the crushed peanuts and remaining scallions.

Steps:

• Place chicken thighs and drumsticks in a large bowl or plastic container, along with buttermilk, hot sauce, and garlic cloves. Stir and coat the chicken, cover, and soak for 8 hours, or overnight, in the refrigerator.
• Remove chicken from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade.
• Combine flour, salt, pepper, and poultry seasoning on a dinner plate. Dredge chicken in the flour mixture.
• Heat 2 inches oil in a large frying pan to 370 degrees F (188 degrees C). Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Place 4 or 5 pieces chicken at a time into the hot oil; about half of each piece should be submerged in oil. Cook, being careful not to poke or touch the pieces more than is necessary, as this cracks the coating and leads to greasy chicken, until golden and no longer pink in the centers, about 4 minutes per side. Place on paper towels to drain. Repeat with remaining chicken, adding more oil as necessary. Transfer chicken pieces to a large roasting pan.
• Roast chicken in the preheated oven until crispy, about 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
