Ingrédients

6
  • 6 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons paprika
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup sweet chili sauce
  • 2 tablespoons sriracha
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Préparation

1

In a mixing bowl, combine buttermilk, salt, and pepper. Submerge chicken thighs in the mixture and marinate for at least 30 minutes.

2

In another bowl, mix flour, garlic powder, paprika, and cayenne pepper. Dredge marinated chicken thighs in the flour mixture until fully coated.

3

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken thighs, skin side down, and cook for about 7-8 minutes until golden brown. Flip and cook for another 7-8 minutes until cooked through.

4

In a separate bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, and sriracha. Drizzle the sauce over the cooked chicken thighs before serving.

5

Garnish with chopped green onions and serve with your favorite side dishes.

Ustensiles

  • Large mixing bowls
  • Skillet or frying pan

Astuces du Chef

Let the chicken rest before cutting it for juicier results.
Add more or less sriracha according to your spice preference.

En cas de problème

If the chicken is not cooking through, reduce heat and cover the skillet.
If the coating isn't crispy, increase the heat slightly.

Variantes de la Recette

Try using chicken breasts instead of thighs.
Add more vegetables like bell peppers to the skillet.

Alternatives Santé

Use skinless chicken thighs for fewer calories.
Swap mayonnaise for Greek yogurt for a lighter sauce.

Suggestions de Présentation

Serve with steamed rice or quinoa.
Pair with a fresh garden salad.
