  • Step 1

    Preheat an oven to 400 degrees. Make the pork rind breading by pulsing pork rinds, mustard powder, and garlic powder in a food processor until it’s all fine and crumbly.
    Step 1
  • Step 2

    Arrange the breading on a plate and whisk a whole egg in a small bowl. Set these aside for Step 4.
    Step 2
  • Step 3

    Lay two chicken thighs on a cutting board and pound to about ¼-inch thickness. Season with the salt, pepper, and italian seasoning.
    Step 3
  • Step 4

    Bread each chicken thigh by first dipping it into the egg, letting the egg run off, and then coating in the pork rind breading. Lay the breaded thighs on a sheet tray lined with parchment paper.
    Step 4
  • Step 5

    Bake the tray for 40 minutes, no flipping necessary.
    Step 5
  • Step 6

    While the chicken is baking, make the side dish. In a bowl, toss THAWED broccoli florets with the remaining seasonings and brown mustard. Arrange the broccoli on a well seasoned sheet tray, spread out.
    Step 6
  • Step 7

    Bake the tray of broccoli in the oven with the chicken for 18 minutes.

      Anyone tried the chicken in an air frier? I’m guessing 400 for 15 minutes?
