How to Pan Roast Chicken Thighs for Crispy Skin & Juicy Meat

When cooking chicken thighs, pan roasting is usually my go-to technique of choice. It's incredibly simple, fast, and results in a delicious, crispy skin with succulent, juicy meat, every time. The fat and brown bits left over at the end of pan roasting can be harvested to make a delicious vegetable side, which I demonstrate using Chinese long beans. Once you try this pan roasting / sautéed vegetable side combo, I'm confident it will become a mainstay in your cooking arsenal.

Reconstructed Chicken Thigh Using Activa GS - Video Technique

In a previous video, I demonstrated how to bond two chicken breasts together using Activa RM. In this video I demonstrate how to bond two chicken leg and thigh portions together using an Activa GS slurry. This form of slurry allows for a tighter bond, making it ideal for large pieces of meat.

My preferred method of finishing is to cook the legs sous vide at 60C for four hours, which makes them extremely tender and juicy. After the fours, I'll ice bath to cool and then portion. For service, both sides of the leg and thigh are pan fried and then finished in the oven until the core temperature is warm.
