Menu Plan Monday!


It's Monday, and I'm joining Orgjunkie.com in her Menu Plan Monday link-up. To start out, here's a link to my menu calendar. I don't post regularly on Menu Plan Monday, but you can always check my calendar.(Several recipes have links inside the description field to the original recipe).

Here are Pepper's beautiful Chicken Thighs, our Saturday dinner. They look fried but aren't and she has perfected this dish. We enjoyed them with spaetzle and green beans.

Her method is thus: Brown the thighs in a non-stick pan with a little olive oil and garlic until they are very brown. Then she covers a jelly roll pan with foil and tops it with a cooling rack.  Place the thighs, skin side up on the rack and pour about a cup of white wine over the thighs. Roast at 350 for 40-50 minutes until done, about 180 degrees. The wine helps steam the thighs and oh, my goodness, they are delicious.
