The paragraph of you describing the progression of the dining experience was pure food porn!!!! Or i’m just twisted. Or it’s a combination of the two. Bottom line: It has to be eaten exactly the way you did for it to be perfect. ❤️

We make this every 2 weeks and alternate between leeks and tomatillos depending on mood.

Hey mama. I kinda assume I could do this w/ bone-in chicken thighs... yes? (If I have them instead of a whole chicken...?).... If so... how would I adjust the recipe to not, y'know, ruin it?

hey kids - anyone, could I do this w/ bone-in chicken thighs, if I don't have a whole chicken on hand? will that mess up the ratios/cooking times & if so, how would you recommend i correct? (i'm too dumb to know, sadly).

Did you make it with chicken thighs? How did it turn out?

Hey there! Thanks so much for asking, Aly! Actually, no, I ended up running out & getting a whole chicken, just b/c I'm a scaredy-cat & didn't want it to suck b/c I didn't follow the recipe... But it was pretty good! The only thing I did wrong, I guess, was that I kept checking w/ my thermo-pen to make sure the chick was over 165 degrees, & it kept being just below... & by the time I finally fried that puppy up into the 160s, the leeks were almost burned to a crisp. They still had some nice flavor, in parts, but they seemed a little further along than might be ideal. Still, thankfully, it was pretty good & I'd love to try it again b/c I think I can do an even better job on it now, since I've got a little practice. Thanks so much for asking! Hope your cooking days are fun these days! x.
