"ChickenThighs" news and stories

• St. Patrick's Day is over, but Irish comfort food transcends the holiday.
• Speaking of the Irish, let's hear it for potatoes.
• Pig ears, anyone?...Anyone?
• Okay, then, how about chicken thighs? That's more like it.

By far, the most common way I prepare chicken these days is by roasting thighs. I went through a phase where I was doing whole chickens, and there's definitely something satisfying about pulling a whole bird from the oven. But for convenience, cost and flavor, I think that thighs are the way to go. I know some of you may be into the whole boneless, skinless breast thing, but I just find them dry and flavorless. Crisp skin, flecked with coarse salt, cracked pepper and rosemary is where it's at.
