Ingredients
Scale
1 pound of chicken thighs (boneless and skinless)
¼ cup chili crisp
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Prep the Chicken: Start by patting the chicken thighs dry with paper towels. This helps get that crispy coating going. Sprinkle a little salt and pepper on both sides to season.
Heat It Up: In a large skillet, heat about a tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat. (If you want extra flavor, I love using sesame oil for this.)
Brown the Chicken: Once the oil is shimmering, add the chicken thighs to the pan. Cook them for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they’re golden brown and cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F). Don’t fiddle with them too much—let them get nice and crispy!
Bring on the Crisp: When the chicken is nearly done, drizzle the chili crisp over the top, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Let it cook for another minute or so, allowing the chili crisp to caramelize and gain that irresistible crunch.
Plate It Up: Once cooked, remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. This helps keep the juices in!
Enjoy: Serve it hot, and watch everyone at the table dig in!
