Chicken breasts get all the press. But chicken thighs are one of the best-kept secrets in poultry: moist, well-marbled, rich-tasting meat that costs a fraction of the more popular chicken breast.
It’s not unusual to find them for ninety-nine cents a pound, a bargain compared to most meats.
And you can do so much with smoked or grilled chicken thighs, from Caribbean-inspired jerk chicken to Japanese yakitori. You can even stuff them with your choice of ingredients—cheese, herbs, ham, etc.
