Oven Baked Bone In Chicken Thigh Tips
Wanna up your game? Elevate the chicken thighs on a wire rack over the pan and bake in the oven for 20 minutes.
Take chicken out of the oven and remove the wire rack and add favorite vegetables to the pan. Stir veggies in the chicken fat and juices and add a little salt and pepper and/or your favorite spices.
Keep onions w/ onions, carrots w/ carrots, potatoes w/ potatoes, etc.. on the sheet pan because some veggies will cook faster than others (i.e. onions cook faster than carrots).
You may need to take the chicken thighs out of the oven one or two times and stir/rotate/ or remove the veggies because they will cook faster than the chicken.

• salt
• pinch black pepper
Instructions:
• Preheat oven to 450F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Take off any excess skin hanging off the thigh, if needed.
