Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 tablespoon finely grated peeled fresh ginger
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
2 teaspoons curry powder, preferably Madras
4 scallions, trimmed and minced
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (3 pounds)

Steps:

Heat broiler, with rack set 4 inches from heat source. In a small bowl, combine ginger, lime juice, curry powder, scallions, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
Place chicken on a rimmed baking sheet; season both sides with salt and pepper. Gently loosen skin from each piece with your fingertips. Dividing evenly, rub ginger mixture under skin.
Turn thighs skin side down on baking sheet, and broil 5 minutes. Flip thighs, and continue to broil until skin is crisp and an instant-read thermometer inserted in thickest part of thighs (avoiding bone) registers 165°F, 6 to 8 minutes more. Serve, drizzled with pan juices.
