Ingredients:
- 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
- 0.5 tsp kosher salt
- 0.5 tsp freshly cracked black pepper
- 0.5 tsp garlic powder
- 3 Tbsp butter
- 3 Tbsp hot sauce
- 0.5 tsp paprika (optional)
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a small bowl, mix the kosher salt, black pepper, and garlic powder (if using).
- Lift the skin of each chicken thigh and sprinkle the seasoning directly on the meat below the skin. This will ensure that the meat is well-flavored.
- Rub the remaining spice mixture on the skinless part of the thighs.
- Place the chicken thighs skin-side down into a cold cast iron pan and turn on the burner to medium heat.
- Allow the skin to crackle and pop for about 6 minutes without moving the thighs.
- After 6 minutes, flip the thighs to skin side up.
- Place the cast iron pan directly on the center rack of the preheated oven and bake for approximately 30 minutes.
- Use a digital meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature of the thickest part of the chicken reaches at least 160°F (71°C) (without touching the bone).
- Once cooked, remove the pan from the oven and let the chicken thighs rest for a few minutes before serving.
