How to Make Baked Fried Chicken Thighs

1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Pat chicken thighs dry with paper towels. This helps the breading adhere better.
3. In a shallow dish, whisk together eggs and milk.
4. In a separate shallow dish, combine flour, salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and red pepper flakes.
5. Dip each chicken thigh in the egg mixture, then dredge in the flour mixture, ensuring it's fully coated.
6. Place chicken thighs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Lightly spray with cooking spray.
7. Bake for 40-50 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the coating is golden brown and crispy. Internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
8. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
