Chicken thighs in sour cream

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 1 hr 10 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to bake chicken thighs in sour cream? Prepare your food. If they are frozen, thaw the thighs first by transferring them from the freezer to the bottom shelf of the refrigerator. Legs are also suitable for this dish. If you prefer them, then take 6-8 pieces for this amount of ingredients. In general, you can bake any part of the chicken this way.

2. STEP 2

   

   Wash chicken thighs and dry with paper towels. Place them in a deep bowl. Salt and pepper on both sides. In addition to pepper, you can add any spices to your taste.

3. STEP 3

   

   Add sour cream to the chicken and stir. Choose high-quality, natural sour cream, without vegetable additives. You can use mayonnaise rather than sour cream. Or take a mixture of sour cream and mayonnaise. Just keep in mind that this will increase the calorie content of the dish.

4. STEP 4

   

   Grate the cheese on a coarse grater.

5. STEP 5

   

   Place the meat with sour cream in a baking dish.

6. STEP 6

   

   Sprinkle the top of the dish with grated cheese. Bake the chicken thighs in an oven preheated to 180°C for about 40 minutes. Be guided by your oven and the appearance of the dish - it should be covered with a golden brown crust. If the cheese suddenly starts to brown too quickly, cover the pan with foil and remove it 10 minutes before the end of baking. Serve the finished thighs with any side dish. Bon appetit!

I cooked chicken thighs in sour cream and I want to say that it is very tasty: tender, juicy meat and a crispy, delicious crust! And it’s not difficult to prepare. I washed the chicken thighs, dried them, and put them in a deep bowl. Added sour cream, salt, pepper, smoked paprika. Mixed so that each thigh was covered in sour cream sauce. I put the chicken thighs in a baking dish, sprinkled them with grated cheese and put them in the oven to bake at 180° for 45 minutes. Mm... it turned out so delicious, you'll lick your fingers! Thank you very much Maria for the recipe and I recommend you try it 😊

I made chicken thighs in sour cream for dinner today. A very simple and tasty dish! I peeled the skin off the thighs and pierced them with a fork several times in different places to marinate the meat better. In addition to salt and black pepper, I added paprika. Paprika gives meat a pleasant aroma and delicate taste. After adding the sour cream to the thighs, I covered the bowl and let it marinate for 20 minutes. Bake in a convection oven for 30 minutes. Chicken thighs in sour cream turned out very tender and juicy. The meat just melts in your mouth. The luxurious aroma of sour cream intertwines with the aromas of spices and herbs, creating the perfect combination of flavors. We really liked the dish. I will definitely cook again!
