Ingredients
2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1 large clove garlic, finely grated
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Toss the chicken with the olive oil, vinegar, garlic, Italian seasoning, crushed red pepper, 1 1/4 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of black pepper until evenly coated.
- Place the chicken on a rimmed baking sheet and roast until golden and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 165 degrees F, about 25 minutes. Serve the chicken in whole pieces or sliced crosswise into strips.
- The chicken will keep up to 4 days. Let cool completely before refrigerating.
