Thighs in onion marinade - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage
Yes, you can substitute chicken breasts, but keep in mind they may cook faster and could become drier. Consider marinating them for a shorter time and checking for doneness frequently during cooking.
If you're looking for a gluten-free option, use tamari. Coconut aminos also work well for a slightly sweeter flavor and are soy-free. For a lower sodium option, use low-sodium soy sauce or tamari and adjust to taste.
While the recipe suggests 4 or more hours, you can marinate the chicken for up to 24 hours in the refrigerator. Longer marinating times can enhance the flavor but avoid exceeding 24 hours to prevent the chicken from becoming too soft.
Absolutely! Bake the chicken at 375°F (190°C) for approximately 20-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). For a crisper exterior, broil for the last few minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.
This chicken pairs well with a variety of sides, such as rice, couscous, roasted vegetables (like bell peppers and zucchini), a fresh salad, or grilled pita bread.
Store leftover cooked chicken in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It will last for 3-4 days. Ensure the chicken is properly cooled before refrigerating.
Yes, you can freeze the chicken in the marinade before cooking. Place the chicken and marinade in a freezer-safe bag or container, removing as much air as possible. It can be frozen for up to 3 months. Thaw completely in the refrigerator before cooking.
To make this recipe low-carb, ensure your soy sauce is a low-carb variant or use coconut aminos. Serve the chicken with low-carb sides such as cauliflower rice, zucchini noodles, or a large salad with a keto-friendly dressing.
Definitely! Feel free to customize the marinade with ingredients like garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, ginger, or a pinch of red pepper flakes for some heat. Add herbs like rosemary or thyme for extra flavor.
Simply multiply the ingredient quantities proportionally to the number of servings you need. For example, if you're doubling the recipe, double the amount of onion, soy sauce, and pepper.
