Certainly! Here’s a simple recipe for crispy fried chicken thighs with bone and skin:

Crispy Fried Chicken Thighs

INGREDIENTS:

• 4-6 chicken thighs, bone-in and skin-on
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to taste for spiciness)
• Salt and black pepper, to taste
• Vegetable oil for frying

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Prepare the Chicken:
   • Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.
2. Prepare the Coating:
   • In a bowl, combine the flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create the seasoned flour mixture.
3. Coat the Chicken:
   • Dredge each chicken thigh in the seasoned flour mixture, making sure to coat it thoroughly. Shake off any excess flour.
4. Rest the Chicken:
   • Place the coated chicken thighs on a plate and let them rest for about 10-15 minutes. This helps the coating adhere better.

1. Heat the Oil:
   • In a large skillet or deep fryer, heat enough vegetable oil to submerge the chicken thighs to 350°F (180°C).
2. Fry the Chicken:
   • Carefully place the chicken thighs into the hot oil, skin side down. Fry for about 8-10 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the skin is golden brown and crispy.
3. Drain and Rest:
   • Place the fried chicken thighs on a wire rack or paper towels to drain any excess oil. Let them rest for a few minutes before serving.

1. Serve:
   • Serve the crispy fried chicken thighs hot. They’re delicious on their own or with your favorite dipping sauce.
