In a deep fryer, heat the oil to 375°F. Deep fry the chicken thighs for 13 to 20 minutes, depending on their size, until they reach 165°F. When chicken thighs are done, remove them from the fryer and transfer to a wire rack.

Place the cooked thighs into a bowl and pour the sauce over them. Thoroughly coat the thighs with sauce, and serve immediately.
Recipe Tips
If you do not have a deep fryer, you can use a heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven. Be sure to use a thermometer to check the oil temperature and keep it at 375 degrees.
