Equipment

  • Oven
  • Baking tray

Ingredients
  

  • 7 pieces Chicken Thighs Bone in or boneless
  • ½ tablespoon Paprika
  • ¼ teaspoon Garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon Ginger powder
  • ¼ teaspoon Cayenne pepper or black pepper or to taste
  • 1 5g stock cube (optional) crushed
  • Salt to taste
  • ½ tablespoon Sriracha sauce optional
  • 1 tablespoon Vegetable or Olive oil

Instructions
 

  • Clean and pat the chicken thighs dry with a paper towel.
  • Make the spicy chicken thighs marinade by mixing paprika, parsley, ginger, black pepper, garlic powder, oil, and salt in a small bowl.
  • Add the chicken thighs in a bowl, add in the marinade then mix well till all the parts are covered evenly in the marinade.
    If you have time, put it in the fridge to marinate for 60 minutes or more otherwise continue to the next step below.
  • Arrange the chicken thighs on a baking tray and put the tray in the oven.
    Bake at a temperature of 200C/400F for 35-40 minutes or till they are well cooked and no pinkiness in the middle.
    If using boneless chicken thighs, it will cook faster than bone-in so check for doneness after 20 minutes.
  • Bring the tray out, serve and enjoy.

Notes

Tips
  • Clean and pat the chicken thighs dry before adding the seasoning.
  • Ensure that chicken is well cooked and there's no pinkiness in the middle.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking tray.
  • Lining the baking tray with parchment paper makes cleaning the tray afterward easier.
  • Drain the juice or serve with chicken.
