I been so busy at work I’ve really not had time to sit down and study it and make something. I agree with you. Chicken Thighs are so good and seem underused. This recipe looks very good.

Oh, and great picture!

Maybe you should try them again?!?!

I’ve just never warmed to them. I guess that’s Kitchen Confession #3 for me.

Capers bring much more of a stronger flavor, but I bet it would be okay. Why don’t you like olives? texture? The subtle taste of the olive doesn’t compete with the sauce, so the caper might be a little off, but give it a try!
