I`ve got a nice and easy one. my kids and I love it. I use it when I buy those 10 lbs. of legs and thighs. 5lbs of thighs in a large deep skillet, add 1 bottle of Ketchup, pour one can of Pepsi(not Coke) in, let it simmer about 1 hour or so makes its own sauce. tangy and kind of sweet like a B-B-Q. good stuff. I make it all the time...carlaAny good homemade recipes for chicken thighs?
This sounds odd but is simple and great with rice and stir fry. Put the thighs in an oven dish with decent sides and bake about 45 minutes or until almost tender. Mix one small can of undiluted frozen concetrated orange juice with about 1/2 cup or more soy sauce. mix and taste until its not too sweet. Drain the chicken and pour on the sauce. Cook about fifteen minutes more , turning a time or two.


I've been known to add some green onion and bell pepper with good results.
I've always used thigh meat in my chicken and dumplings.
peanut butter chicken


1/4 cup peanut butter


2 tbs chopped peanuts


2 tbs soy sauce


1 tbs minced onions


1 tbs minced parsley


1 clove garlic--crushed


several drops of red pepper sauce


1/8 tsp ground ginger


4 whole chicken thighs of breasts--skinned and boned


2 tbs honey


1 tbs melted butter


1 10 1/2 ounce chicken broth


1 tbs cornstarch


2 tbs soy sauce





Mix peanut butter, peanuts, 2 tbs soy sauce, onion, parsley, garlic, pepper sauce, and ginger. spread on inside of chicken thigh of breast. fold in half; close with small skewer or toothpick. place in slow-cooking pot.


Mix remaining 2 tbs of soy sauce with Honey, butter, and broth; pour over chicken. cover from pot. turn control to high. dissolve cornstarch in small amount of cold water; stir into sauce. cook on high for about 15 minutes.


Spoon sauce on chicken and serve.
Thighs are great not only fried but excellent in making several different Chicken Salads, Chicken %26amp; Dumplings, Chicken Soups and Chicken ala king. Yes, and you can even leave out the kitty cat and use them in Chow Mein.
I like to marinate in lemon juice, pepper, salt, oregano, parsley, onion powder, a little garlic powder and some meat tenderizer. From there you can grill on the grill which is perfect for this time of year, serve with some grilled corn on the cob or sweet potatoes, coleslaw or salad and then maybe some sliced strawberries or watermelon for dessert.


Also you could fry them up on the stove top, serve with mashed potatoes, corn or green beans, some rolls or biscuits.


You could put them in the crock pot, some BBQ sauce... or use apple jelly, grape jelly and ketchup... also great for meatballs, have some baked potatoes (you can put these in the microwave so you don't even have to run your oven) maybe have a can of corn or some baked beans. If none of this sounds good to you you can try to go to http://www.cooks.com and they have a recipe search just type in chicken thighs and you will have an endless number of recipes.
My kids like my taco thighs recipe. Wet either skinned or unskinned chicken in milk and then shake them in a bag of flour(enough to coat ) and a packet of taco seasoning. Spray some cooking spray or lighty grease or oil a baking dish and cook for an hour @ 350. I served with salad, refried beans and rice. Hope you enjoy.
Take a knife, lay them skin down, cut down a long side of bone,but don't cut all the way through, season, run them through an egg wash, roll them in flour, then deep fry, at temperture of 350 degrees, for about 15 minutes or until done. these are very good fixed this way. ( Egg wash--2 eggs beaten with a little milk. a couple of dashes of hot souce %26amp; salt %26amp; pepper. )
I would soak them in red wine and vinegar overnight, then roll them in a flour,paprika, and Parmesan cheese and with Mrs dash seasonings for chicken,then bake in a 350 * oven for 45 minutes until done.
put thighs in a pan and sprinkle over a dried onion soup mix. Then add about 1/2 cup of ketchup over that and about 1/4 cup of brown sugar. Cover and bake at 350 F for about 40 minutes. It will glaze the chicken and make a sauce.
There are many ways to do chicken -grill,oven %26amp; skillet . My favorite is on the grill . Use a dry rub , that consists of - poultry seasoning , garlic pepper %26amp; thyme . Then drizzle EVOO on top . Let it sit for 30 MIN. - then pre-heat grill to med-high heat . Put chicken on grill %26amp; then sear , turn heat down to med. %26amp; cook till tender . Then start applying BBQ - sauce of choice---until done..!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can go on %26amp; on about recipes for all accounts on how to cook chicken different ways , but , it would take to long...........sorry..!!!!!!! If you need more you can E-MAIL me @ bbq_pioneer@yahoo.com....!!!!!!!!!
