Recipe by Chef #990819

This main dish is easy to make as a budget dinner. It can feed four people for less than $10. Chicken thighs are economical and full-flavored. But we often pass over them in the grocery store because many recipes call for chicken breasts. The frying oil, which is made from a blend of soybean and peanut oil, adds a robust, nutty flavor.
