Tips and Tricks: Chicken Thighs

When we eat chicken thighs, we eat between 2 and 4.  Unfortunately they only sell them in like packs of 18.  I used to pull out the food saver and seal 'em up but this time I used them up.

Boil the leftover chicken thighs in water for 45 minutes make sure internal temperature hits 165F. Remove to a cutting tray and let cool completely. Remove the chicken from the bones, fat, and skin. Shred meat and store in fridge. Use bones, fat, and skin to make chicken broth. Use shredded chicken meat to top salads, fancy up scrambled eggs or omelets, make chicken salad, wrap your dog's medicine around, add to pasta, or sandwiches. so versatile.

Protip: don't try to use a knife and fork, or two forks. Just wash your hands and use them. It brings the "funny bites" down to zero because you can feel everything.
