3/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan

1
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Lightly oil a baking sheet.

In another large bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, Parmesan, chives, paprika and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon cayenne.
6
Sprinkle the chicken thighs with 1/2 teaspoon salt.
7
Dip the chicken in the mustard mixture to coat and roll in the breadcrumbs on all sides.
8
Lay on the prepared baking sheet so the pieces do not touch.

Bake on the middle rack of the oven until the coating is browned and crispy and the chicken is no longer pink near the bone, about 40 minutes.

Transfer to a large platter and serve.

Cook's Note: This recipe is also delicious with boneless skinless chicken thighs.
