Critical Success Points

  • Debone the thighs correctly without tearing the meat
  • Stuff and tie the thighs so the filling does not escape
  • Roast at 200 °C to achieve a crispy skin while keeping the meat juicy
  • Reduce the prune sauce to the proper consistency

Safety Warnings

  • Handle raw chicken with separate utensils to avoid cross‑contamination.
  • Use gloves or a towel when handling the hot chicken skin removed from the oven.
  • Beware of very hot toasted almonds; they can cause burns.
