When I order wings at Pizza Hut, I get the garlic parmesan chicken thighs. I tried to recreate them at home with this chicken recipe! I love the seasonings on this chicken. This is probably the closest sauce you will get to restaurant sauce. This chicken recipe makes 4 pieces of chicken. I would recommend baking them in a deep baking dish so that the juice has a place to collect.
This recipe also makes the chicken very moist. You can use any chicken part you want like breast, thigh, leg, wing, etc. Click here for an article on how to adjust cook time for different parts of chicken. The time below works perfectly for thighs and legs, but click the article if you want to be sure about other parts of the bird.

What to serve with oven baked chicken:
- potatoes-My family loves serving mashed potatoes with our garlic parm chicken! You can pour the leftover garlic sauce on the potatoes to make them garlic potatoes, which tastes quite yummy!
- vegetable-Meat and veggies always go well together!
How do I tell if my garlic parmesan chicken thighs are done?
- temp-With a meat thermometer, you can remove a piece of chicken from heat and insert the meat thermometer. If the chicken temps above 165 degrees Fahrenheit, it is done.
- cutting it open-Without a meat thermometer (I did not have one for years) you can cut a slice of chicken open to see if it is done. If it is white on the inside, it is done. If the chicken is still slightly pink, let cook a bit longer. When using thigh meat, I prefer to cut mine open because sometimes even if it is done, blood can collect on the inside. Cutting it open releases it.
