Baked Chicken with Soy Sauce and Garlic
This recipe for Chicken Thighs was named by one of our favorite little people in the world, Tyler, who visited us earlier tonight.
He is seven and is a fabulous assistant, actually tonight I think we assisted him. Not only did he help us make the chicken, he chose the name for the chicken and he decided how the photo should look.
He believes the only way to properly display dark colored chicken is on a white plate with flowers and salad. After we took a bunch of photos he selected the one that would best show everyone how delicious the chicken was!
Tyler you did an amazing job and we miss you already! We hope to see you again soon Tyler! He hopes you will give this chicken a try.
