1
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Prepare a baking pan by coating it with a thin layer of avocado oil. This will prevent the chicken from sticking and add an extra layer of flavor.
2
Lay out your bacon slices on a cold nonstick skillet, then turn the heat to medium. Cook the bacon until it's nicely browned and crispy, flipping occasionally for even cooking. Once cooked, transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to cool down.
3
Once cooled, crumble the bacon into small bits and place them in a medium bowl.
4
Add the freshly grated Parmigiano Reggiano cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and freshly ground black pepper to the bowl with the bacon.
5
Trim any excess fat from the chicken thighs and season them with the pink Himalayan salt. Ensure to distribute the salt evenly on both sides of the chicken thighs.
6
Spread a teaspoon of avocado oil mayonnaise over each chicken thigh. Then, press each mayo-coated side into the parmesan-bacon mixture to form a crust.
7
Arrange the crusted chicken thighs in the prepared baking pan and bake for 30 minutes, or until juices run clear when the chicken is pierced with a knife. Allow the chicken to rest for a few minutes before serving to ensure juicy and flavorful bites.
