To get started with this particular recipe, we have to first prepare a few ingredients. You can have chicken thighs with pistachio crust using 5 ingredients and 4 steps. Here is how you can achieve it.
The ingredients needed to make Chicken thighs with pistachio crust:
- Take 1 cup pistachios (unsalted)
- Make ready 1/2 cup pine nuts
- Get 6 chicken thighs (bone removed)
- Take salt

Quick tip: if the pistachio crust doesn't seem to stick to the chicken, or if the crust is super clumpy, it might be too moist. Add one more teaspoon of each flour if needed. I thought the crust tasted very good on the fish and my husband loved the chicken version. I bet the crust will taste even good on veggies.
Steps to make Chicken thighs with pistachio crust:
- Turn on the oven on 180/200 (the thighs will be already partially cooked so you are only finishing the cooking in the oven not starting from scratch).
- In a mortar crush the pistachio and the pine nuts (I don't like using a blender as I think it makes it too much into a paste whereas I am going for a more chunky consistency). put them in a container and add quite a bit of olive oil and a pinch of salt
- Warm a frying pan with a tiny bit of olive oil and when hot add the thighs. We want to sear them so that they are white all over and start to be a bit golden. If the pan gets too hot and it starts to burn add very small splashes of white wine as needed. When they are all sealed transfer them in a oven proof dish
- Coat the thighs with the "pesto" that you have made, cover with oven paper and put in the oven for 15/20 minutes.
We will definitely be making this again! Pistachio crusted chicken is a variation of the more common pecan crusted chicken. Chicken is coated in chopped nuts and breadcrumbs, and baked. The outside of the chicken gets crispy and crunchy and the inside stays juicy. Pistachios can usually be found in the shell, or pre-shelled.
