Panko Chicken Thighs image

I invented this recipe as a way to use up leftover panko. Breading chicken with these larger-than-average bread crumbs leads to a healthier alternative to fried chicken, while still retaining the crunchiness. Serve with your favorite sauce.

Time 1h25m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 7

½ cup all-purpose flour
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons water
2 cups panko bread crumbs
2 teaspoons dried rosemary
2 teaspoons adobo seasoning
8 (8 ounce) bone-in, skinless chicken thighs

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
  • Place flour in a medium bowl. Crack both eggs into a similar bowl, add the water, and whisk with a fork until they take on a uniform consistency. Place panko bread crumbs in a third bowl, add adobo seasoning and rosemary, and mix. Set the bowls so the flour is on the left, the egg wash is in the center, and the bread crumbs are on the right.
  • Dredge both sides of thighs in flour, shaking off excess. Dip in egg wash, turning over to coat both sides. Let excess drip off. Drop into bread crumbs, rolling to coat evenly. Place on the prepared baking sheet. The chicken should move from bowl to bowl in a line from left to right, with no jumps back left. Repeat with remaining chicken.
  • Bake thighs in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Let cool for 10 minutes before serving.
