  It’s no secret that I love to cook chicken thighs. They are richer in flavor than chicken breasts, plus they are less expensive. Myriads of flavor enhancements can showcase the bird. Citrus is a favorite, especially tangerine or other varieties of mandarins.
  To make this delicious tangerine-spiked chicken dish, you can use the minced zest, but I prefer to use the finely chopped peel of 2 thin-skinned tangerines, or other mandarins, such as Cuties or Halo brands.
