Eating Chicken Thighs. There is only one bone in a chicken thigh, making it easy to eat with a knife and fork. If you would like to debone the thighs before serving, turn it upside-down use a knife to cut alongside the bone, without cutting all the way through.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Place chicken thighs in a baking dish; season both sides with garlic powder and onion flakes. Bake in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and juices run clear, about 30 minutes.
Chicken thighs are right at home on the grill; they retain their moistness throughout this high heat cooking method. Set up your grill with two zones — one for direct heat where you can sear and char and crisp up the exterior and the other zone for indirect (medium to medium-low) heat to allow thighs to finish cooking.
Chicken thighs are commonly sold with the bones still in, and it's up to you whether you want to keep them or toss them. Not only are they a little less expensive than boneless chicken thighs, but they also pack more flavor.
