Preparation
1. Prepare The Chicken
Score the chicken with 2-3 cuts.
2. Make the Marinade
In a bowl, combine the seasoning and mix to get rid of any lumps.
3. Coat the chicken
As this is a dry rub, season each chicken thigh individually to ensure that it is coated evenly and the seasoning gets into the cuts.
4. Marinate
Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, ideally overnight.
5. Cook
Take the chicken out of the fridge 30 minutes to 1 hour before you want to cook it. This helps the chicken get to room temperature and allows for even cooking.
Preheat the oven or airfryer to 200 degrees Celcuis.
Add a drizzle of oil and mix well.
Transfer the chicken to a baking tray and sprinkle some extra sugar on top of the chicken to help with the caramelisation. Cook until fully cooked through with a slight char on the outside (about 10 minutes).
6. Rest
Rest the chicken for 5 minutes. This allows the chicken to reabsorb the juices in the tray.
Enjoy!😊
