The chicken thighs are one of the most popular pieces of cooking that this animal offers. They are cheap and very versatile. You can make them whole in the oven, cook them, debone them and grill them, and you can use those same bones to make chicken broth.

No matter your level of experience in the kitchen, make recipes of thighs chicken is easy. The most important thing is that they are well cooked.

Tips for making chicken legs

  • Before nothing wash them with plenty of water. Remove the leftovers of fats, skin, blood and feathers, which sometimes do not remove them well.
  • Also, sometimes, when they sting, they have some pieces of organs stuck to the back of the teeth. thighs. Clean all that well.
  • You can divide the leg of the thigh if you wish. If you want to do it, you must use a good knife, sharp, with which you will make a cut just in the joint between the main bone of the leg and the square. This conjuncture can "loosen" it by splitting it. Hold the piece at its ends and make a hinge motion when a door is opened.

As for the cooking take into account the following:

  • If you make the chicken thighs in the oven do not remove the skin, it gives a lot of flavor, in addition it is going to roast and that crispy texture is possibly the most pleasant thing in life after ... other things.
  • Whether you bake them or put them on the grill, I recommend that you make a cross section of 1 cm deep to facilitate cooking. Also, if you're going to marinate, that's where the flavors come in.
  • Another fun tip: you can put herbs, spices, sauces, butter between the skin and the meat, as if it were a filling. The flavor that it takes is sensational.
  • If you decide to make the stewed thighs, I recommend removing the skin. The parboiled texture is horrible.
  • In the case of a broth, you can use the whole piece, bone and meat, but without skin, the only thing that will give you is fat.
  • After the broth is ready, you can trim the meat and use it for various types of stews.
  • A herb that I recommend to season the chicken thighs: tarragon.
