Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
💡 Proffstips: Preheating the oven ensures even cooking. - 2
Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels. Season generously with salt and black pepper.
💡 Proffstips: Drying the chicken skin helps it crisp up. - 3
In a bowl, whisk together the sour cream, minced garlic, chopped dill, and vegetable oil.
💡 Proffstips: Ensure the sour cream mixture is well combined. - 4
Arrange the chicken pieces in a baking dish. Pour the sour cream mixture over the chicken, ensuring each piece is coated.
💡 Proffstips: Using a baking dish that fits the chicken snugly helps it cook in its own juices. - 5
Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the skin is golden brown and slightly crispy. The internal temperature should reach 75°C (165°F).
💡 Proffstips: Basting the chicken with the sauce halfway through cooking can add extra moisture. - 6
Let the chicken rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. Garnish with extra fresh dill if desired.
💡 Proffstips: Resting the chicken allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in more tender meat.
