Barb is my inspiration for supper tonight....Barb and her crispy chicken skin, that is!
I pulled 4 thighs out of the freezer (I wrap & freeze separately) and let them thaw. Then poked the skin all over to allow the underlying fat the render and I deboned them. I dried them well and then salted them heavily and they are on a plate, uncovered in the refrigerator. Before I cook them I will rinse (to remove the excess salt) and dry and allow them to come to room temperature. Then I'll either do them on a griddle on the grill or, if it rains, do them in a cold pan on the stovetop ala the Cook's Country method I did a while back for crispy skinned chicken breasts.
(added at edit:) I forgot the step with the chicken to weigh down the cooking chicken pieces with a heavy pan so they have good contact with the skillet....I'm going to use a light-weight Dutch oven with some water added for the weight.....
I also have a good sized sweet potato I'm thinking of slicing thin and baking till crisp for sweet potato chips.....last of the asparagus and supper is all planned. (edit:) The darn slices have been in the oven over an hour at 275° and they are almost crisp....gotta be a quicker (cooler) way to get baked chips......once may be enough for these! LOL
