Crispy coated chicken thighs made with crackers and cornmeal, baked to perfection.
Ingredients:
  • 0.25 cup shortening, or as needed
  • 0.25 cup butter, or as needed
  • 0.5 cup vegetable oil, or as needed
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon water
  • 10 crackers, or as needed, crushed
  • 0.25 cup cornmeal, or as needed
  • 1 teaspoon dried sage
  • dried tarragon
  • 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to a toasty 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • In a 9x13-inch baking dish, melt shortening and butter in the preheating oven. Once melted, add enough vegetable oil to reach a 1/2-inch depth. Leave the oil mixture in the oven while preparing the rest of the ingredients.
  • In a shallow dish, whisk together egg and water. In a large resealable plastic bag, combine crackers, cornmeal, sage, tarragon, and garlic powder. Season with salt and pepper, seal the bag, and shake to mix. Dip chicken thighs in the egg mixture, then place 2 to 3 thighs in the bag and shake to coat. Repeat with remaining chicken. Arrange chicken thighs skin-side down in a preheated baking dish.
  • Roast chicken thighs in the oven until cooked through, about 30 minutes. Flip the thighs and bake for an additional 15 minutes until no longer pink at the bone. Check for doneness by ensuring the juices run clear and an instant-read thermometer reads 165°F (74°C) near the bone.
