How to Make Baked Buffalo Thighs
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Pat 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs dry with paper towels.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup hot sauce (Frank's RedHot is recommended), 2 tablespoons melted butter, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, and 1/2 teaspoon paprika.
- Add the chicken thighs to the bowl and toss to coat evenly.
- Lightly grease an 11x7 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
- Arrange chicken thighs in a single layer in the prepared baking dish.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- Serve immediately with your favorite blue cheese dressing, celery sticks, and carrot sticks.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
