Cream Cheese Chicken Thighs
Cream cheese chicken thighs roasted in the oven go perfect with a topping of Everything Bagel seasoning. Here's how to get this easy chicken thigh recipe right!
Servings: 2
Equipment
- Baking Pan
Ingredients
- 1 lb chicken thighs (5 - 6 chicken thighs)
- 1 - 2 tablespoons Everything Bagel seasoning
- ½ cup cream cheese
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- salt and pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°. Pat the chicken thighs dry.
- Drizzle some oil on a baking sheet. Lay the chicken thighs on the baking sheet, opened with the smooth side down. Sprinkle salt and black pepper on the rough sides of the thighs. Add 2 tablespoons of whipped cream cheese to the smaller side of each thigh and spread evenly. Add a sprinkle of Everything Bagel seasoning.
- Close the larger side on top of the smaller side with the cream cheese mixture so the cream cheese is essentially inside the thigh, like a cream cheese-stuffed chicken thigh.
- Drizzle olive oil on top of each chicken thigh and use a brush to spread evenly. Sprinkle a generous amount of Everything Bagel seasoning on each piece of chicken.
- Bake the chicken thighs in the oven for about 25 minutes or until the internal temperature is 165°.
