Ingredients

Chicken

4-6 chicken thighs (boneless & skinless)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
3/4 cup buffalo sauce divided
2 Tablespoons olive oil extra virgin

Instructions

In a large ziplock bag, combine chicken with seasoning and 1/2 cup of buffalo sauce, stirring until combined. Allow chicken to marinade for at least 15 minutes and up to an hour (if you have the time) in the refrigerator.
Heat oil in large skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken for 5-7 minutes on each side and until cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 165°. Cook in batches if your pan is not large enough to hold all chicken thighs at once.
Drizzle on remaining buffalo sauce and serve!

Notes

- Don't skip marinating. To maximize the chicken's zesty flavor, marinate for at least 15 minutes or longer if you have time!

- Trim away excess fat using kitchen shears before cooking chicken thighs.

- For an extra crispy finish, consider popping chicken under the broiler for a few minutes after cooking on the stove.

- Chicken is fully cooked when it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F. We love the Thermapen® by Thermoworks for checking meat temps.

- Instead of pan-searing chicken, cook chicken in the oven for 20-25 minutes at 400°F.

Serve blue cheese or ranch dressing on the side for dipping.
