    Thighs only. Breasts are too bland, so to make them taste like anything worth using the calories for, you're just adding more calories. I'd rather have one thigh and actually enjoy the taste of it.

    Thigh, leg quarers or whole bird. All skin on unless a recipe calls for it and even then if I can get away with skin on and bone in I'll do it for the extra flavor.

    Plus I exorcise mom privilege and claim all unwanted crispy chicken skin.

    My favorite is chicken wings- but I will eat the thigh or leg - my mom loves the breast

    Love thighs if I can get them boneless or if I want to make broth. I used to not care for breasts because they would always get dry but I finally found a great way to bake them and now love them too. Pound to 1 inch thick, spice up however you want, and bake for 18-19 min at 450 or until they reach 160-170. They come out moist and delicious :-) I also usually give them a salt water soak (and skip salt in the seasoning) but I don't have salt issues.
