Preparation

How to prepare Baked Paprika Chicken Thighs

To prepare the paprika chicken, start by seasoning the thighs with salt 1, sweet and hot paprika 2. Mix well with your hands to distribute the flavors 3.

Pour the oil 4, white wine 5, and season with pepper to taste 6.

Continue to massage the thighs, allowing them to absorb the flavors evenly 7. Once the ingredients are well mixed, transfer the seasoned thighs to a baking dish where they fit snugly together 8 and pour the marinade over them 9.

Cover with plastic wrap and let marinate in the fridge for at least 30 minutes 10. After the necessary time, take the thighs and place them on a baking tray 11. For convenience, you can pour the marinade into a small bowl 12.

Brush the surface of the thighs with the marinade 13 and bake in a preheated static oven at 392°F for about 45 minutes. Every 10 minutes, brush the surface of the thighs and turn them halfway through cooking 14. Once your paprika chicken is ready, you can enjoy it piping hot 15!

Storage

The paprika chicken can be stored in the fridge for 2-3 days, keeping the container covered.

If you want, you can marinate the chicken for a longer time, but it is best not to exceed 8 hours of marinating.

Freezing is not recommended.

Tip

The salt will not be absorbed by the meat, so you can be confident about the indicated amount! However, if you prefer, you can reduce the amount to your liking or omit it according to your cooking habits!
