Crispy Salt-and-Pepper Chicken Skin Recipe

Crispy Salt-and-Pepper Chicken Skin Recipe

  • 1/2 pound chicken skin (from about 2 whole chickens or 3 pounds thighs); cut into 3″ pieces
  • Salt and pepper
  • Parchment and baking sheet (to keep skin from curling)
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Trim meat and excess fat from 1/2 pound chicken skin (from about 2 whole chickens or 3 pounds thighs); cut into 3″ pieces. Flatten, flesh side down, on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper; top with another sheet of parchment and baking sheet (to keep skin from curling). Bake until browned and crisp, about 1 hour. Remove top baking sheet and paper; let cool 10 minutes.
  2. Skin can be baked 3 hours ahead. Store airtight at room temperature.
