Savory Herbed Chicken Thighs

Among the common cuts of meat, chicken thighs might just make the most compelling canvas for seasonings, sauces, and marinades. Since chicken thighs have a relatively higher fat content, they’re typically more juicy and flavorful from the start, which tends to create all the more exciting interactions with other flavors. Case in point: Trader Joe’s Savory Herbed Chicken Thighs. Each package contains boneless, skinless cuts of Chicken Thigh that have been seasoned with a sublimely savory marinade that’s made with aromatic herbs like basil, cilantro, and mint, along with garlic, shredded lemon peel, crushed chili peppers, and even a bit of fish sauce for an extra umami kick.

This mix of bold herbs, seasonings, and aromatics, combined with the natural juiciness and richness of the Chicken Thighs, creates a uniquely delicious flavor profile once they’re fully cooked. Speaking of which, since they’re pre-marinated and ready to go, cooking is a breeze: simply grill, roast, or pan-fry until a thermometer in their internal temperature reads 165°F on a meat thermometer. After that, it’s simply a matter of picking a side to serve them with: we like them with a bit of Organic Cauliflower Rice, some steamed veggies, or a fully-loaded baked potato, ourselves.
