Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Crispy Oven-Fried Chicken Thighs.
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking pan with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a shallow bowl, mix together the flour, 1 pinch of cayenne pepper, 1 pinch of garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until well combined.
Step 4
In a third bowl, combine the panko bread crumbs with the remaining pinch of cayenne pepper, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Step 5
Take each chicken thigh and dredge it in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess flour.
Step 6
Next, dip the floured chicken into the beaten eggs, ensuring it is fully coated.
Step 7
Finally, press the chicken into the panko mixture, coating both sides thoroughly.
Step 8
Place the breaded chicken thighs onto the prepared baking pan.
Step 9
Bake in the preheated oven for about 40 minutes, or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C) when checked with an instant-read thermometer.
