Cooking boneless skinless chicken thighs [closed]

What's a good approach to cooking boneless skinless chicken thighs relatively quickly if tenderness is a priority?

I know some people like a somewhat chewy texture with chicken thigh but the person I'm cooking for is quite sensitive to it

chicken

Best Answer

Quick and tender do not typically go hand in hand.

I get this is not really a direct answer but I slow cook 4 or more at a time and refrigerate. Then microwave for like 30 seconds as needed. I use skin with bones (cheaper) and then remove the skin and bones after cooked. Cooking in the fat works better in a slow cooker and tenderizes. Yes the chicken does absorb some fat. But you also melt off all the surface fat.

For direct cooking I would saute with red wine.

I don't have one but a programmable pressure cooker may be your best option.

Do you unfold boneless chicken thighs?

If you unroll them before baking them so that they're almost like filets, then they'll be ready in 18-20 minutes.

Do you bake chicken with the lid on or off?

Baking chicken at home (whether as pieces or a whole bird) is really as easy as prep and bake. You never have to worry about covering chicken while baking, as it's fine to bake it uncovered, and once your chicken is in the oven, it's hands-free until you need to check the temperature.

How do I cook boneless chicken thighs?

Season the thighs with your rub, marinade or sauce of choice. Place the chicken thighs skin-side down on the grill or grill pan. Grilling chicken thighs with the skin on is a great way to keep the meat moist in the cooking process. If you don't want the added calories and fat, just remove the skin before serving.
