It would not be very descriptive to call this Hailey’s Chicken, would it? It’s called that in our home for two reasons. First, it’s Hailey’s favorite chicken dinner. It’s also a meal that she can prepare and bake by herself. This crispy baked chicken thighs recipe is our favorite chicken recipe.
- Chicken thighs are cheaper per pound than chicken breasts.
- The dark meat in the thighs is more flavorful than the white meat.
- Easy to cook – Chicken thighs will not dry out as much as chicken breasts, so they are more forgiving.
My children love to bake but I encourage them to also have a few recipes for dinner in their arsenal. They will use these more often. The recipe for crispy baked chicken thighs is a good one for a budding cook because it is so easy and you can’t mess it up.
