Made this last night, we really enjoyed it. My chicken thighs came in at 10 oz though, so had to play with the serving size. I covered when placed in the oven to keep it from getting dry.

Good basic recipe but lacks flavor as a whole. Also this serves two with adding an additional veggie side this will not feed 4 people. Considering that the macros are still good splitting the recipe in 2 rather than 4. Ill make it again but tweak the spices.

I used regular paprika, red pepper flakes, and added some green olives also. It was fun! We were happily surprised.

What would the carb count be if I left the skin on?

I thought it was delicious. The balance between the spiciness of the paprika and the peppers were great for my taste. I'm definitely making this again.

It was ok, but not super flavorful.

This was tasty, but the portion size was way to small. 12.7 oz does not = 4 large chicken thighs. It = 4 smallish chicken thighs (FYI of you're not using a kitchen weight)

What do you think about subbing turmeric for the paprika? I'm allergic to red chili and even mild paprika is not an option.

Is one serving 2 thighs? That seems a bit much.

8oz is one serving, no bones of course

Hi, I agree - I have updated the recipe so it is now 1 thigh per person. Many thanks.
