Meat - Chicken thighs under a lid by Emanuela C. - Recipia

Chicken thighs are some of the most beloved dishes in Romanian cuisine. Today, I propose a simple yet extremely tasty recipe that will turn this modest ingredient into the star of the meal. We start by preparing the chicken thighs. Wash them well under a stream of cold water and dry them with a paper towel. This step is essential to achieve a crispy crust when cooking. Next, we season the thighs with salt, Delikat, and marjoram. I also added a splash of basil to give them a more aromatic flavor. It is important to massage the spices well over the entire surface of the meat so that the flavors penetrate deeply. If you want to add other spices, feel free to experiment - paprika, pepper, or even a mix of herbs can bring extra flavor. If you do not have a special pot for oven cooking, do not worry! You can use a larger lid from a regular pot. Grease this lid with a little margarine or oil to prevent the thighs from sticking and to provide a pleasant texture. Place the seasoned thighs on the greased lid, and around them add a few sliced garlic cloves. The garlic will provide an intense flavor and will season the meat during cooking. In a pot, add water, ensuring that the water level is high enough to allow the steam to circulate but not touch the thighs. Place the lid with the thighs above the pot and put everything in the preheated oven at 180 degrees Celsius. Let the dish cook for about 45 minutes or until the thighs turn golden and a fork easily penetrates the meat. When ready, carefully remove the lid from the oven and observe how the thighs shine, having a delicious crust. These aromatic thighs pair perfectly with crispy French fries and a garlic sauce made from crushed garlic, oil, and salt. Mix the ingredients for the sauce well to achieve a smooth and flavorful paste. This recipe, although seemingly simple, will bring a smile to the faces of your loved ones, and the intense flavor of the fried thighs will truly be memorable. Don't forget to savor every bite and share this moment with those around you!
