    How To Meal Prep This Recipe

(Note: Check the expiration date on the chicken to make sure you can store it that long in the fridge.)

    It takes about 25-30 minutes at 400 F to bake boneless & skinless chicken thighs and about 35-40 minutes at 400 F to bake bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs. The cooked chicken should register 165 F when it’s done.

    Hello. I have been looking for easy healthy recipes and came across this one. My problem is that the sodium content is way high! I think 83% of daily allowance. Is this an error? I just had a heart attack three weeks ago so have to cut back on my salt and sugar intake.

      Hi Pat, the nutritional information is an automatic tool and the sodium amount is calculated automatically. I am not sure why it’s showing such a high amount for sodium since most of the ingredients are low in sodium. You can omit the salt from the recipe if you have any concerns. Hope you enjoy it!
