Pork Rind Baked Chicken Thighs
Still experimenting with lower fat and lower carb recipes. Protein is king for myself now so I add more in where I can, hence the greek yogurt. I have a version of this recipe using mayo. The greek yogurt gives the same tender meat result without any added fat and a touch of added protein. Flavor always has to reign supreme. These thighs were crispy, fork tender and just plain delicious. A change in your eating lifestyle doesn't mean boring!

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Place chicken on foil lined baking dish. That makes for easy clean up.
- 2
Take Greek yogurt and put one tablespoon of yogurt over each thigh. Repeat with barbecue sauce. Again, to keep calories lower I used a sugar free version. Mine also had habanero flavoring. Gives a nice kick!
- 3
Sprinkle salt, pepper and garlic over thighs. Then evenly spread pork rinds on top.
- 4
Bake at 375 for 40-45 minutes or until thighs are cooked through.
- 5
Enjoy.
