Kroger sells these chicken thighs in a nicely sealed family pack and sometimes I don’t want to mess with them so into the freezer they go. Makes a big brick of rock solid thighs. When they thaw they all need to be cooked right away. An easy way is to roast them. I seasoned these with salt, garlic, and black and Aleppo peppers. They cooked in a convection oven at 350° for about an hour. These were just a tad frosty when they went in so they may have taken longer.
They produced enough fat to make a big pot of gravy. Started with a blonde roux and added chicken stock till it looked right.
Mashed potatoes with gravy, green beans, and a couple of those thighs. Not fancy but the plates were licked clean. Mrs J had some help from Gabe on her plate.
Biscuits make a fine base for pulled chicken in the same gravy. That used up a few more of the thighs. Still have some gravy!
