Each one of these recipes requires very little effort and don't require a lot of ingredients. Not only can they be baked fast, but they also taste delicious. Here are a couple of recipes you want to try out for baked chicken thighs.
Juicy Chicken Thighs
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and make sure the oven is heated to this temperature before putting the chicken in to bake. Take an appropriately sized baking pan and set it on the counter. Wash your chicken thighs in cold water and set the thighs in the pan.
Mix a tablespoon of oil with garlic powder and onion flakes. Slather the mixture on both sides of the thighs. You can sprinkle more garlic powder and onion flakes on the chicken if the mixture ran light.
Put the chicken thighs in the oven and bake them for approximately 30 minutes. When you think they are done, pull them out and check to see that there is no pink left near the bone. This dish is good served with white rice seasoned with a butter and garlic sauce and corn on the cob.
Lemon Pepper Chicken Thighs
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F and wait for the oven to indicate the temperature has been reached. Wash off the thighs in cool water and place them in a bowl.
In a separate bowl, add in a half cup of softened butter, two pinches of salt, a half teaspoon pepper, a half teaspoon garlic, a generous amount of lemon juice, and a tablespoon of fresh thyme leaves.
Stir the mixture well, then mix the thighs in the mixture. Place the chicken thighs in a baking pan and add in some cubed potatoes. Pour the remaining mixture over the potatoes. Put the pan in the oven and bake for approximately 35 minutes. When the chicken has no pink left near the bone, it is done.
