Crispy Cilantro & Lime Chicken Thighs

Ingredients

1. 4 ( 1 1/4 lb) chicken thighs
2. 2 tbsp cilantro ( chopped)
3. 2 tsp lime zest
4. 1 1/2 tsp kosher salt
5. 1 tsp fresh cracked pepper
6. 1 tbsp olive oil
7. 2/3 cup low sodium chicken stock
8. 2 tbsp lime juice

Directions

Remove bones and excess skin from chicken thighs, leaving skin intact. Combine cilantro (reserve 1/2 tbsp), lime zest, salt, & pepper. Rub mixture all over chicken. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a non stick skillet over medium heat, add chicken skin side up, and cook 5 minutes, turn chicken skin side down and place a heavy pot or skillet on top of the chicken, this will help the skin get really crispy. Cook the chicken for 10-12 minutes or until cooked through.
Transfer chicken to plate, set aside. Pour out all grease and oil from pan and add the lime juice, then add the chicken stock, let this reduce down on medium heat for about 3-4 minutes. Spoon over chicken.
