Roasted Chicken Thighs with Crispy Skin - how to store and reheat

I may be doing it wrong but my solution to this is microwave briefly to get the insides up to a warm temperature. I don’t usually fully reheat it because I don’t want to overcook the chicken. I finish by recrisping in a hot oven (400 or 425) briefly.

That’s exactly what I do, and I do it fairly often.

Using only a standard oven, if you reheat the chicken at a high temp the skin can burn before the thighs are heated through, and if you reheat at a lower temp and just turn it up to 425 at the end (for crisping) you run the risk of drying it out. Microwave plus a brief time in a hot oven is the way to go.
