Juicy Ranch Chicken Thighs, a gluten-free comfort food that’s simple to prepare and delicious.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 pieces bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 tablespoon ranch seasoning mix
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels. Arrange them in a baking dish.
- Step 2: In a medium mixing bowl, combine olive oil, mayonnaise, sour cream, ranch seasoning mix, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
- Step 3: Place the chicken thighs skin-side up in the baking dish and slather with the creamy ranch glaze.
- Step 4: Roast the chicken thighs in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
- Step 5: For extra crispiness, broil for the last 2-3 minutes, watching carefully to avoid burning.
- Step 6: Remove from oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Notes
Pat the chicken dry for crispy skin. Adjust cooking time for boneless thighs. Reheat in the oven for optimal crispiness.
