Using Other Cuts Of Chicken

This Southern baked chicken thigh recipe is best made with dark meat. That meand you can use bone-in or boneless thighs, legs, or wings. While bone-in breasts may work okay, I do not recommend boneless, skinless chicken. They will dry out during the cooking time.

FAQs & Tips

  • Rub the chicken with oil or melted butter before adding the seasoning.
  • Store leftover chicken in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
  • Arrange the chicken in a single layer in the baking dish, do not crowding the chicken or overlap. This will result in uneven cooking.
  • For extra crispy skin, remove the foil and finish the chicken under the broiler for a few minutes. Keep an eye on the chicken so it doesn’t burn.
