If you have the time, consider soaking the chicken thighs in a salt bath, This will help tenderize the meat, making it juicier and more flavorful. This technique also helps the chicken retain moisture during cooking. To do this, add 2 teaspoons of salt in 4 cups of cold water. Then, put the raw thighs in the salt water, ensuring they're fully covered. Refrigerate the meat in the brine for 30 minutes to 1 hour. After brining, rinse each piece thoroughly with cold water and pat it dry with paper towels before cooking. For extra flavor, you can even add herbs, garlic, or lemon slices!
