Keto Crispy Baked Chicken Thighs

Recipe Description

These Crispy Baked Chicken Thighs are not only easy to make, they taste delicious! I’ve been using this recipe for years and I am so excited to share it with you now. You will never need another chicken thigh recipe once you have checked it out. It’s so simple and the end result is so good.

All you’ll need for this recipe is chicken thighs, olive oil and some seasoning to flavour the skin. The secret to achieving crispy skin every time is to pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels before seasoning them. Another trick of mine is to line the baking tray with foil so that you have very little mess to clean at the end of the meal. This recipe is great to make for a crowd – simply double (or triple) the recipe depending on how many people you’re cooking for.

To make Crispy Baked Chicken Thighs, you will need the following ingredients:
