Herb & Garlic Chicken Thighs

 

Even though I publicly professed my approval of chicken boobs a while back, I will never let go of my love of chicken thighs.  They are delicious, pretty cheap, and no matter how you cook them, they stay nice and juicy.

My usual plan of attack when it comes to chicken thighs?  Make them in the Instant Pot and just change up the flavors I add to keep things simple but interesting/tasty.  Which if you follow me on Instagram, you’ve seen the endless parade of shredded chicken bowls.

Hey, not everything about spring can be sunshine and rainbows.
