🌍 Origin & History
Chicken thighs are the dark horse of the grill. While chicken breasts got all the marketing attention in the low-fat 90s, thighs remained the choice of real cooks who knew that fat equals flavor. A boneless, skinless thigh has about twice the fat of a breast, which means it stays juicy on the grill without any sugary marinade. Just a dry rub and high heat is all you need.
🥗 Diabetic-Friendly Pairings
