Crispy Ginger-Lime Chicken Thighs

From:

Everyday Food

These piquant chicken thighs are flipped halfway through cooking for even results. Stuffing the curry mixture under the skin flavors the meat.

Prep: 10 minutes
Total: 20 minutes

Ingredients

Serves 4

  • 1 tablespoon finely grated peeled fresh ginger
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 2 teaspoons curry powder
  • 4 scallions, minced
  • Coarse salt and ground pepper
  • 8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs

Directions

  1. Heat broiler, with rack set 4 inches from heat. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil; set aside. In a small bowl, combine ginger, lime juice, curry powder, scallions, 1 teaspoon salt, and teaspoon pepper.
  2. Arrange chicken on prepared baking sheet; season with salt and pepper. Gently loosen skin from each piece of chicken. Dividing evenly, rub ginger mixture under skin.
  3. Turn thighs, skin side down, on baking sheet. Broil about 5 minutes. Flip thighs, skin side up, and continue to broil until skin is crisp and an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of thighs (avoiding bone) registers 165 degrees, 6 to 8 minutes more. Serve chicken drizzled with pan juices.

My family and I enjoyed this chicken dish tremendously! I tweaked the recipe slightly by adding 3 cloves of garlic and pounded them together with the other ingredients using a mortar and pestle. Instead of using the broiler, I roasted the chicken skin-side up at 425'F for 40 minutes; they turned out great with crispy skin too. Oh, and I marinated the chicken for a few hours using Kraft's Zesty Italian dressing. We had this dish with a side of brown rice pilaf, yum!

I actually thought this recipe was pretty tasty! I prefer my dark meat cooked to about 180º so I cooked the thighs skin side down for 10 mins. then flipped them and let them go for another 10 mins. I also used Tone's curry powder--sometimes the choice of curry powder can make or break a dish. I will make this recipe again.
