De-seed and roughly dice the chili. Add to a food processor along with the oil, vinegar, lemon juice, garlic, paprika, cayenne, onion powder, salt and pepper. Blend together to create a spicy marinade.Step 2

Place the marinated chicken skin side down in the hot skillet - 2 thighs at a time, cooking for 4-5 minutes to crisp the skin. Turn and brown the other side. Set aside and repeat with the remaining two thighs.Step 5
