Ingredients 

  • 2 lbs Bone-In Chicken Thighs, (6-7 pieces)
  • 3 tbsp Mayonnaise
  • 1 large Egg
  • 1 tbsp Yellow Mustard
  • 1 tbsp Hot Sauce
  • 1 tbsp Cajun Seasoning
  • 1 packet Sazon
  • 2 tsp Onion Powder
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1 tsp Old Bay
  • 1 tsp Smoked Paprika
  • 1 tsp Kosher Salt

Breadcrumb Coating

  • 5 tbsp Salted Butter
  • 2 1/2 cups Panko Breadcrumbs
  • 1 1/2 tsp Cajun Seasoning
  • Cooking Spray , (like Pam)

Instructions 

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place the wire rack on top.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the seasonings - 1 tbsp Cajun Seasoning 1 packet Sazon 2 tsp Onion Powder 1 tsp Garlic Powder 1 tsp Old Bay 1 tsp Smoked Paprika 1 tsp Kosher Salt Whisk until combined.
  • Pat chicken dry with a paper towel. In a large bowl, add mayo, egg, yellow mustard, and hot sauce. Whisk together to ensure everything is combined, then add chicken and seasoning blend. Mix everything together to ensure the chicken is fully coated. Set aside. 2 lbs Bone-In Chicken Thighs 3 tbsp Mayonnaise 1 large Egg 1 tbsp Yellow Mustard 1 tbsp Hot Sauce
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Once melted, add breadcrumbs and cook until the breadcrumbs turn golden brown, about 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent the breadcrumbs from burning. 5 tbsp Salted Butter 2 1/2 cups Panko Breadcrumbs
  • Add breadcrumbs to a shallow bowl and add cajun seasoning. Mix together to ensure the seasoning is evenly dispersed. 1 1/2 tsp Cajun Seasoning
  • Remove the chicken from the marinade and let excess marinade drip off. Dip into the breadcrumbs on both sides. Press the breadcrumbs into the chicken to ensure it's fully adhered and place onto the wire rack on top of the baking sheet. Repeat with all of the chicken pieces. Spray with cooking spray just before placing into the oven.
  • Bake on the middle rack of the oven for 40-45 minutes, until the internal temperature of the chicken is 165 degrees F.
