I’m not a thigh fan either, but there’s a local fast food restaurant that grills their chicken, and the thighs are very good. I wish I could do the same at home.
I was never a thigh fan until a few years ago. I do the egg wash & then Panko crumbs. Sautee them in olive oil & butter. When they are crisp & done I squeeze the juice of a whole lemon into the pan drippings(take chicken out first!) & add a knob of butter, swirl, heat & pour over the thighs. Delicious!
