Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make thighs in a sleeve in the oven? Prepare your ingredients. To prepare chicken thighs in a sleeve in the oven we will need: chicken thighs, garlic, mayonnaise, sour cream, a mixture of spices for chicken or for legs and salt. You can make your own mayonnaise, below the steps you will find a link to homemade mayonnaise recipes.

Step 4

Step 5

Step 5
Place the thighs in a baking bag and secure the ends of the bag with clips. Pierce the bag with a toothpick in several places to allow steam to escape during baking.

Step 6

Step 6
Bake chicken thighs in an oven preheated to 200°C for about 40 minutes. Times are approximate. Read about ovens below the steps. If during the process the cling film begins to darken greatly, as if the thighs are burning inside, do not be alarmed. This roasts the juices on the surface of the cling film. The thighs themselves acquire a golden crust at the very end of baking. You can serve the thighs with any side dish. I served it with baked potatoes in the sleeve. Bon appetit.
