cracklin Chicken



My daughter found this on Pinterest and wanted me to make it for our Thursday family dinner.  Its is really good and so quick to make.  So if you're looking for a quick week night meal give this a try.  This would be great to make and then put in your salad.   This was a huge hit so I will for sure be making this again.

Ingredients:
boneless chicken thighs *skin on*
salt and pepper
ghee or butter and oil mixed *for frying*
large cast iron skillet

As the person that posted this says it's so much cheaper to buy bone in thighs and just removed them yourself.  It's not rocket science and oh so easy.
Turn the thigh skin down, get a good boning knife or kitchen shears and just start cutting along the bone taking your time and then cut around the knob at the end and remove.  It's really that simple.
Dry the pieces well and then salt the skin side *as the chef's say make it rain* which means hold your hand up high and sprinkle the salt on your chicken.  You can season the under side with salt and pepper or add some other spices if you like.  Guess you like a bit of kick you could add some chilli powder or such.  I just did the plan salt and pepper.  Was great.

Heat the oil and butter then add the chicken skin side down.  Cook for about 7 minutes *DO
 NOT MESS WITH IT* just let it cook, you can move the pan around on the stove to be sure that all the parts are getting cooked the same.    Check after about 7 minutes to see if it's nice and golden brown...like above... then flip and cook for about another 3 minutes.  Drain on paper towel....ENJOY!!


Thanks for stopping by, have a wonderful week and Always Remember to Find the Time to Do ALL the things YOU L♥ve.
