Preheat an oven to 400 degrees. Make the pork rind breading by pulsing pork rinds, mustard powder, and garlic powder in a food processor until it’s all fine and crumbly.
Step 2
Arrange the breading on a plate and whisk a whole egg in a small bowl. Set these aside for Step 4.
Step 3
Lay two chicken thighs on a cutting board and pound to about ¼-inch thickness. Season with the salt, pepper, and italian seasoning.
Step 4
Bread each chicken thigh by first dipping it into the egg, letting the egg run off, and then coating in the pork rind breading. Lay the breaded thighs on a sheet tray lined with parchment paper.
Step 5
Bake the tray for 40 minutes, no flipping necessary.
Step 6
While the chicken is baking, make the side dish. In a bowl, toss THAWED broccoli florets with the remaining seasonings and brown mustard. Arrange the broccoli on a well seasoned sheet tray, spread out.
Step 7
Bake the tray of broccoli in the oven with the chicken for 18 minutes.
Step 8
Serve each breaded chicken thigh with half the broccoli.
