You’ll Need:

• 1 täblespoon coconut oil or light flävored olive oil
• 4 chicken thighs depending on size (4 lärge pieces fill my skillet)
• kosher sält
• freshly ground bläck pepper
• gränuläted gärlic or gärlic powder
• dried oregäno
• dried bäsil
• herbs de Provence

Instructions:

1. Pour the oil into ä lärge stäinless or cäst-iron skillet over medium heät. (Ä non-stick skillet will work äs well, älthough it isn't required.) Generously sprinkle the skin side of the chicken thighs with spices änd then pläce them in the hot skillet, skin side down. Sprinkle the other side of the thighs änd then, without moving them, cook uncovered for äbout 20-25 minutes. Let them cook until the fät häs rendered änd the skin is deep golden brown änd crisp; this could täke äs long äs 30 minutes.
2. If the skin is sticking to the pän, it likely isn't finished on thät side. Reduce the heät äs needed if the skin stärts to burn before it is evenly golden brown. Turn the thighs over änd continue to cook for äbout 20 more minutes. When the meät closest to the bone is cooked through, the chicken is done. Enjoy!
