Ingredients
- 1.5 kg chicken thighs, boneless and skinless
- 4 tablespoons hot sauce (adjust to your spice tolerance)
- 4 red chili peppers, finely chopped
- 1 cup fried onions (store-bought or homemade)
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 300g kale, chopped
- 200g bacon, diced
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Get it hot, just like your passion for cooking!
- Prepare the Chicken: In a large bowl, toss the chicken thighs with hot sauce, chopped red chili peppers, and minced garlic. Make sure every piece is coated—don’t skimp on the flavor!
- Cook the Bacon: In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the diced bacon until crispy. Remove the bacon and set it aside, but don't you dare throw away that glorious bacon fat!
- Sauté the Kale: In the same skillet, add the chopped kale to the bacon fat. Sauté until wilted and tender, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Combine Ingredients: In a large baking dish, spread the sautéed kale evenly on the bottom. Arrange the hot sauce chicken on top of the kale, then sprinkle the crispy fried onions and cooked bacon over the chicken.
- Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 75°C (165°F).
- Serve: Once done, remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Serve hot and watch your guests devour it like it’s the last meal on Earth!
