Description

Chicken thigh (with bone and skin) from Greek farms stands out as one of the most flavorful and juicy cuts thanks to its natural fat content and rich texture.

It has a slightly darker color than breast meat due to myoglobin and stays tender even in simple preparations, making it perfect for everyday Greek cuisine meals.​

Rich in high-quality protein (about 27g per 100g with skin), B vitamins, and minerals like iron and selenium, it offers strong nutritional value at around 216 calories per 100g (with skin), delivering excellent taste for grilling, stews, or skewers.

The skin adds crispiness and aroma during cooking, while the fat keeps it moist and irresistible.​

Pairs perfectly with rice, potatoes, pasta, or vegetableswhether grilled, oven-baked, or in sauces—for hearty, family-style dishes.

Tommy's Tips

  • Marinate for at least 2 hours for richer flavor.

  • Use fresh herbs like rosemary and thyme.

  • Don’t forget to turn the meat during cooking for even results.

  • Marinating allows herbs, garlic, lemon, and olive oil to deeply penetrate, enhancing juiciness especially in fattier thighs.

  • Fresh rosemary and thyme provide aromatic Mediterranean notes ideal for Greek-style grilling or roasting.

  • Turning ensures uniform browning and prevents drying.

Cooking Tips

  • Oven roasting with lemon, garlic, and vegetables creates juicy thighs infused with bright Mediterranean flavors—marinate first, then bake at 200°C for 45-60 minutes with potatoes, carrots, and onions until golden and tender.​

  • Grill after marinating with honey and mustard for a sweet-savory glaze; sear over medium-high heat, turning frequently for caramelized edges and smoky char.​

  • Slow simmer in a pot with red sauce and herbs like oregano for tender, sauce-soaked results after 40-50 minutes on low heat, perfect over pasta or rice
