Presentation

These crispy fried chicken thighs are seasoned to perfection and cooked until golden brown and crispy on the outside, while staying juicy and tender inside. A simple and delicious dish that’s perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

4 chicken thighs, bone-in and skin-on

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 tsp paprika

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp salt

½ tsp black pepper

Vegetable oil for frying

Preparation

In a bowl, mix the flour, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.

Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels. Coat each thigh evenly in the flour mixture, pressing gently to ensure it sticks.

Heat enough vegetable oil in a large pan over medium-high heat to cover the bottom. Once hot, add the chicken thighs, skin side down, and cook for 7-8 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy.

Transfer the fried chicken thighs to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

Serve hot with your favourite sides.
