This crispy salt and pepper chicken skin recipe is a clever way to ensure nothing goes to waste when preparing poultry. Often referred to as 'chicken crackling', these savoury shards are incredibly satisfying, providing a deep, roasted flavour and a delicate crunch that rivals any shop-bought crisp. By weighted pressing during the cooking process, the skins render their fat evenly, resulting in a consistent, golden finish that is simply seasoned to let the natural flavour shine.
As a diabetes-friendly snack, this dish is naturally low in carbohydrates and high in protein, making it an excellent alternative to traditional grain-based savoury treats. Serve these crisp shards as a standalone snack with a cold drink, or crumble them over a seasonal salad or creamy soup to add a layer of texture. They are best enjoyed fresh, though they can be prepared a few hours in advance and stored in an airtight container.

How to make Crispy Salt-and-Pepper Chicken Skin
Preheat oven to 177°C. Trim meat and excess fat from 230g chicken skin (from about 2 whole chickens or 1.4kg thighs); cut into 3" pieces. Flatten, flesh side down, on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper; top with another sheet of parchment and baking sheet (to keep skin from curling). Bake until browned and crisp, about 1 hour. Remove top baking sheet and paper; let cool 10 minutes.
Skin can be baked 3 hours ahead. Store airtight at room temperature.
