Directions
- Marinate the chicken
Place chicken thighs in a ziplock bag. Add lemon juice and hot sauce, seal, and shake to coat.
Refrigerate for 1 hour, flipping the bag every 15 minutes if possible.
- Preheat oven
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Grease a shallow baking pan.
- Prepare coating
Melt butter in a small saucepan.
In a bowl, mix breadcrumbs, salt, paprika, and chopped parsley.
- Bread the chicken
Drain chicken in a colander after marinating.
Dip each thigh into melted butter (both sides), then roll in breadcrumb mixture, pressing gently so it adheres.
- Bake
Arrange chicken skin-side up in the prepared pan without crowding.
Bake for about 40 minutes, or until deeply golden and cooked through.
