Tips & Tricks (5)
- Ranch Mix Magic 🌟Toast the dry ranch seasoning in a dry skillet for 30 seconds before coating the chicken to intensify its flavor profile and remove any raw powdery taste.
- Cast Iron Perfection 🍳Ensure your cast-iron skillet is preheated for at least 3-4 minutes to create the ideal blackened crust and prevent the chicken from sticking.
- Skin Crispy Technique 🔥Pat chicken thighs completely dry with paper towels before seasoning to guarantee maximum crispiness and prevent steaming instead of searing.
- Even Seasoning Trick 🧂Use a fine mesh strainer to evenly distribute the ranch seasoning, ensuring a consistent and thin coating across the entire chicken surface.
- Fat Render Mastery 💨Start skin-side down to render fat and create a crispy exterior, cooking for about 6-7 minutes before flipping to finish cooking.
