Coratina Olive Oil Spiced Chicken Thighs with Sumac

Ingredients:

  • 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
  • 2 tbsp Coratina Olive Oil
  • 1 tbsp Spicewalla Sumac Spice
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh lemon wedges for serving
  • Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions:

  1. Prep the Chicken: Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, mix Coratina Olive Oil, Spicewalla Sumac, smoked paprika, cumin, garlic, salt, and pepper to form a marinade.

  2. Marinate the Chicken: Rub the spice mixture evenly over the chicken thighs, making sure to get under the skin. Let the chicken marinate in the fridge for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight for maximum flavor.

  3. Cook the Chicken: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Heat a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken thighs skin-side down for 4-5 minutes until the skin is crispy and golden brown. Flip the chicken over and transfer the skillet to the oven. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).

  4. Serve: Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes, then garnish with fresh parsley and a squeeze of lemon juice. Serve with roasted vegetables or couscous for a full Mediterranean-inspired meal.

The richness of Coratina Olive Oil and the tangy brightness of Sumac create a perfect harmony of flavors, making these spiced chicken thighs a standout dish that's easy to prepare but packed with bold flavor!
