Never Fail Crispy Chicken Thighs

Three ingredients. That’s all you need for the best and most reliable dinner staple. Just chicken thighs + salt + pepper. I love to throw these in the oven when I’m trying out a new recipe for a side dish or making vegetable soup and want to add a little more substance to the meal. You can bake a couple of thighs at a time or add as many as you need to feed a crowd. Seriously. They’re awesome. No step-by-step on this one because it’s really that simple, y’all.
Simple, fast, delicious & crispy – is there anything better??
