Chicken Thighs, an Underappreciated Part.

May 9th, 2008 No comments

I like to marinate skinless chicken thighs in something different each time I cook them.  This time it was simply Olive Oil, Garlic, Lemon, Salt and Pepper, then roasted in the oven.

Another favorite marinade is Feast Kitchen’s Sesame Dressing.  Chicken Thighs marinated in it a day or two are truly amazing.  They’re sweet and juicy.  I usually barbeque them.  You must try it.  Here’s the link to the dressing I use as a marinade.  It’s the best dressing for a Chinese Chicken Salad too.  I get it from Costco.

Trout from Opening Day in Bishop.

My dad just caught this.  He’s been going to Bishop’s opening day every year for more than twenty.  He competes with his best friend to catch the biggest fish.  He won again this year and I always reap the rewards.  This one was broiled in the oven with Italian Dressing.  Seafood Broiler Restaurant used to make a ‘Trout Italiano’ when I worked there way back in the 80’s.  It was the best.  Ever since then I’ve had the taste for the combination.  It’s optimum over a mesquite barbeque.
