These baked chicken thighs are a perfect choice for a light and healthy meal, with crispy skin and a juicy, melt-in-the-mouth interior.
Ingredients:
- 4 chicken thighs
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 50 ml extra virgin olive oil
- 100 ml white wine
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Some lettuce leaves and cherry tomatoes (to accompany)
Elaboration:
- Prepare the marinadeIn a bowl, mix the olive oil, chopped garlic, oregano, thyme, salt and pepper. Rub the chicken thighs with this mixture and leave them to marinate for at least 30 minutes in the fridge to soak up all the flavours.
- Baking the chickenPreheat the oven to 200°C. Place the chicken thighs on a baking tray and pour the white wine over them. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until the skin is golden brown and crispy. If necessary, turn the thighs halfway through baking to brown evenly on both sides.
- Rest and accompanimentOnce cooked, let the chicken thighs rest for a few minutes before serving. Serve with a salad of lettuce and cherry tomatoes for a balanced meal.
