Crispy Ginger-Lime Chicken Thighs

I found this recipe on Martha Stewarts website and it's a family favorite! It's really easy to make, and tastes even better on the grill.
I throw some cilantro rice and some grilled pineapple to top it off. If you try it, I want to hear how you like it! (because I guarantee you will!)




Ingredients
1 tablespoon finely grated peeled fresh ginger
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
2 teaspoons curry powder
4 scallions, minced
Coarse salt and ground pepper
8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
Directions
1.Heat broiler, with rack set 4 inches from heat. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil; set aside. In a small bowl, combine ginger, lime juice, curry powder, scallions, 1 teaspoon salt, and teaspoon pepper.

2.Arrange chicken on prepared baking sheet; season with salt and pepper. Gently loosen skin from each piece of chicken. Dividing evenly, rub ginger mixture under skin.

3.Turn thighs, skin side down, on baking sheet. Broil about 5 minutes. Flip thighs, skin side up, and continue to broil until skin is crisp and an instant-read thermometer inserted into thickest part of thighs (avoiding bone) registers 165 degrees, 6 to 8 minutes more. Serve chicken drizzled with pan juices.

  3. Hi everyone! I'm not sure how this blog thing works but wanted to thank those who sent book reviews and recipes. Can't wait to read some good books and taste some good food. If I get someone to teach me how, I will try to contribute when I have something worthwhile!
