This was excellent. I followed recipe exactly except only had 8 thighs and I cooked a little longer. The flavors were out of this world. I am just a dad who has had to start cooking more than just on the grill since my wife went back to work. It is recipes like this that make me look like I can actually cook. It was an easy recipe for a novice and the results exceeded all expectations.

I will make this at least once a week. 12 thighs were not enough at all for my family.Even my youngest daughter dislikes almost any kind of meat ate 4 of them. I used a new broth out that I found that was white wine & herb chicken broth and some shallots that I had on hand. I also made it with skinless boneless chicken thighs.Very very easy and went perfect with the moroccan carrot salad and lentils with spinach.
