About

These deliciously juicy chicken thighs are basted with our keto bacon and parmesan butter and oven baked until the skin is crisp and golden.

The recipe for the bacon and parmesan butter can be found in our sides section.

Ingredients

  • 6 large chicken thigh, skin eaten
  • ½ servings keto bacon and parmesan compound butter
  • ¼ teaspoon salt, sea salt
  • ⅛ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and arrange the chicken thighs across an oven tray.
  2. Slice the butter into 6 even portions. Carefully tease the skin away from the chicken thigh fillets and rub the thigh meat with a portion of the butter, placing the skin back over the buttered thigh meat.
  3. Season the skin well with salt and pepper. Transfer the thighs to the oven to bake for 40-45 minutes or until cooked through, spooning the melted butter and pan juices over the chicken halfway through. The chicken juices should run clear and the skin should be crisp and golden.
