Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat the oven to 400°F. In a shallow bowl, mix 1/3 cup almond flour, 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese, 1 tbsp chopped rosemary, 1 tbsp chopped thyme, 1 1/2 tsp salt, and 1 tsp black pepper.
  2. Step 2: Pat dry 6 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs and brush each with 2 tbsp of the melted 3 tbsp unsalted butter. Dredge each thigh in the almond flour mixture, pressing gently to adhere the herb crust.
  3. Step 3: Place the chicken thighs on a foil-lined baking sheet skin-side up. Bake for 35 minutes until skin is golden and juices run clear.
  4. Step 4: While baking, melt the remaining 1 tbsp butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Add 4 minced garlic cloves and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not browned.
  5. Step 5: Remove chicken from the oven and brush the garlic butter evenly over the thighs. Return to the oven for an additional 3 minutes to infuse flavor before serving.
