Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the confit

    In a deep oven-safe dish, combine chicken thighs, olive oil, salt, garlic, thyme, and rosemary. Ensure the chicken is submerged in oil. Cover with foil and bake at 250°F (120°C) for about 2 hours until tender.

  2. 2

    Make the herb salsa

    In a bowl, mix together chopped parsley, lemon zest, lemon juice, and chili flakes. Adjust seasoning with salt and set aside.

  3. 3

    Crisp the chicken skin

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the chicken skins until they are golden and crispy. Drain on paper towels and season with salt.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Place the confit chicken on a plate, drizzle with herb salsa, and garnish with crispy chicken skin chicharron.
