So yesterday a.m. I grabbed the package of boneless, skinless chicken thighs out of the freezer to thaw for supper. All day long I kept wondering how I was going to fix it. One family can eat only so much chicken before we're all clucking & acting like we're going to lay an egg. Grabbed my cooking magazines. Out of cooking for 2 (no, I do NOT EVER cook for two - but I digress) - I found a recipe called "Oregano Chicken". Looked easy enough - & pretty fast. Let me tell you - there was absolutely NOTHING left! I sort of went with the recipe - but this is how I fixed it:
6 thighs (boneless, skinless)
several dobs of minced garlic (I used the refrigerated, in a jar kind)
Lemon Pepper
Oregano
Olive Oil
Coat (or rub) garlic over chicken, then sprinkle (according to how much you like) with lemon pepper & oregano on both sides. Heat olive oil in skillet & brown chicken both sides for about 5 minutes. Put chicken in shallow pan or baking dish & put in 400 degree oven for 30 minutes - uncovered. I turned the chicken once about 10 minutes before it was done. Chicken is done when juices run clear.
Let me tell you - this chicken was amazing! So tender & full of flavor! Of course if you don't like either garlic, lemon pepper or oregano - you're just out of luck!
If you make this, let me know if you altered the recipe and/or how your family liked it!
