I have a package of boneless skinless chicken thighs-and I always just cook them in coconut oil or in soup

any other suggestions-im searching internet-but nothing is standing out to me yet

    I throw them in the slow cooker with salt, pepper, and garlic. When they're done I shred them and add to salads, tacos, noodles... whatever really.

    I like to finely dice up garlic and mix it with melted butter, then dip the thighs in it, and dredge them lightly in bread crumbs & bake. (You can drizzle the rest of the garlicky goodness over them before you put them in the oven.)

    Tasty, easy, and pretty quick.

    I love to make a curry with chicken thighs. I hate white meat lol! Just cook up the meat, then stir-fry some veggies, meanwhile warm up some coconut milk with some curry paste (most grocery stores have it now) and then simmer it all together.

    I just season them (salt, pepper, italian seasoning) and bake them in the oven. I usually have them for lunch with a quinoa mix and a veggie, but we make them into a simple dinner as well with a whole bunch of veggies and possibly a carb.

    If you like a bit of spicy, I use Jamaican jerk seasoning and bake or roast them...another recipe I love is Shoyu style chicken - boil them in soy sauce with brown sugar, ginger and garlic (you could probably slow cook them in crock pot as well)...both super simple and yummy :)

    Thighs are on the menu for us for dinner tonight. I'm roasting them in the oven with tomatillos, onions, jalapeno, and garlic cloves and a few spices. You can shred the chicken when it's done and eat it and the salsa with tortillas or over rice. It is great just by itself too.

    This sounds delish. Makes me think of cacciatore. Brown the chicken in some olive oil, set aside. Then sauté up some garlic, onion, peppers & mushrooms (we don't always have mushrooms on hand & I often omit them) in the same pan/oil. White wine usually goes in next. We may not always have that either, so I sub chicken or beef stock. Or a bullion cube dissolved in warm water in a pinch. Add a can of tomatoes (I usually use the ones with garlic, basil & oregano) and put the chicken back in cover and let it braise over medium heat for about 30 min.

    Traditionally I think there are capers in there too, but eh. (I don't follow recipes, can you tell?) You'll have to quick Google this one for more precise measurements depending on how many you are cooking for.

    Skin the thighs if you don't buy skinless. I sprinkle with Morton's Seasoning and brown in
    olive oil. Remove, place thighs in crock pot. In the same pan you browned chicken in, sauté 1 C of seasoning mix (frozen, chopped celery, onions and bell peppers) and 1 C of sliced mushrooms. Cover with 1 can of reduced fat cream of mushroom soup and 1/2 the soup can of white wine. Pour over thighs and cook on low for 6-8 hrs. I put it on at bedtime and cook overnight but it can be made early a.m. for use as dinner. Serve over white or brown rice, noodles or plain.

    Chicken tandoori!!!

    You marinate the thighs in yogurt, melted light butter, garlic, coriander leaves and a tandoori spice blend, which you can get online or at a spice shop, Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, etc. Then grill it. Marinate for 4+ hours. I made this last weekend and it was as good as any tandoori I ever had at an Indian restaurant. The spice blend I used was Desi Tandoori Masala and the recipe was on the label. I just swapped out light butter (Land O Lakes) for the butter.

    I did a whole chicken and doubled the marinade recipe, but thighs are perfect for this dish.

    I brush the tops of my chicken thighs lightly with mayo (about 1/2 tsp per thigh), then top with a panko, parm, and Italian spice mixture (anout 1 tablespoon of the mix per thigh). Bake at 350 F for 25 to 30 minutes. Yum!

    Oh yeah, thighs are also *perfect* for crock pots, they never dry out, they just fall apart.

    I like to season boneless/skinless chicken thighs with Cajun seasoning and Herbes du Provence and grill them about 8 minutes on each side.
