It is chicken time! And I think, one of the easiest ways to prepare various parts of chicken (or even chicken in a whole!) is to bake them with some spices.
Baked Spicy Chicken dish is great for the dinner: its cooking doesn’t require much of attention, which gives you time to take care of other important things :). However you will need to start cooking it in advance to let chicken soak in the sauce.
So let’s mix up some spices, garlic, mayonnaise, pour it over the chicken and bake it all together.
Ingredients
- 3.5-4.0lb of boneless chicken thighs (about 8 pieces)
- 1 garlic bulb
- 2 cups of mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp of paprika
- 1 tbsp of ground chipotle chili pepper
- 2 tbsp of salt
How to make, step-by-step:
-
Prepare ingredients: chicken thighs can be easily replaced by wings, drumsticks, breasts or even whole chicken 🙂 (however the time for cooking needs to be adjusted in this case, also if you bake a whole chicken – don’t forget to sauce it from inside as well as from outside):
