Thai Chicken Thighs
I use the family pack of chicken thighs (3 1/2 lbs). They are on sale buy one get one free this week. Woo-hoo! I made up one recipe to toss in the freezer for another day. I serve this with rice and veggies. I think this would work well in a crock pot also.
My family LOVES this dish. It is so flavorful and tender. Serve over rice, mashed cauliflower, quinoa, squash or sweet potatoes. So good!
