I thought this recipe was worth revisiting since it was from my very first post and I hadn't taken a photo then. It's easy. It's yummy. Enough said.
I toss in a couple of small sweet potatoes (each wrapped in foil) to roast on a foil lined baking sheet about 30-35 minutes before the chicken goes in. Then, place the chicken on the sheet with the potatoes and continue cooking both together. The potatoes should be done in about an hour total depending on their size.
Scottie's favorite Cardamom Roasted Chicken Thighs:
4 cloves garlic, smashed whole cloves
3 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 tablespoons honey
1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom (I grind the pods in a spice grinder so it’s nice and fresh)
1 package boneless, skinless organic chicken thighs
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1. Place the garlic, soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey and cardamom in a resealable plastic bag. Place chicken thighs (I trim off as much fat as I can first) in the bag, and squeeze to coat. Press out most of the air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 4 to 5 hours.
2. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Remove the chicken from the marinade, and discard the marinade. Place chicken on a broiling pan or baking sheet (lined with aluminum foil). Season with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
3. Roast in the oven for ~25-35 minutes (depending on how large they are), or until chicken is browned and a thermometer registers 160. Remove from sheet pan, cover with foil and let rest for about 5-10 minutes.

New post yay! I need to type up my tutti-frutti bran muffins. It has all your faves: greek yogurt, blue agave nectar... Actually the last batch had golden syrup. (shh!) I even soaked the bran in the yogurt overnight a la your oatmeal pancakes.
You totally have to send me that recipe! :-)

We made these tonight with the jicama sticks and roasted brussel sprouts. Yummy!
We're back now after our epic journey and I'm looking forward to cooking again. Tomorrow I'm making the curry chicken salad with cashews!
Yay Beth! So nice to have my cooking buddy back!! :-)
Beth marinated up a batch then took off with Verena leaving me and Chucho all alone. Anyway, I opted for grilling the chicken along side some jumbo shrimp all spiced-up and washed down with a Sierra Nevada Summer Lager. Yum.
Hey Mike...She just knows how capable you guys are when left to your own devices. :-) Boys need some bonding time alone anyhow. Give that chap a good pat on the head for me.
