Ingredients
Scale
- 4 chicken thighs, bone-in and skin-on
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, smoked paprika, brown sugar, salt, black pepper, and optional cayenne pepper to create a marinade.
- Place the chicken thighs into the marinade, ensuring they are thoroughly coated. Allow them to marinate for at least 30 minutes at room temperature, or for up to 4 hours in the refrigerator for enhanced flavor.
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Transfer the marinated chicken thighs to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, positioning them skin-side up.
- Roast the chicken in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes until the skin is golden and crispy, and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- Before serving, garnish with chopped parsley.
Notes
For the crispiest skin, pat the chicken thighs dry before marinating. Consider using different herbs or sweeteners for variations.
