Garlic Ginger Chicken Thighs

Lately I've been trying to cook more than bake, and to try recipes with ingredients that I would never otherwise eat. This recipe is simple enough that I wouldn't have minded spending time on it if I didn't like it, and it uses ginger, which I wouldn't normally eat. (I even had to google how to peel it.)

Garlic-Ginger Chicken Thighs

serves about 4

2lbs skinned, boneless chicken thighs

1c thinly sliced red onion

2T minced garlic

2T minced peeled ginger

1/4c soy sauce

1/4c orange juice

1t pepper

Combine chicken, onion, garlic, ginger, soy, juice and pepper in a plastic bag.

Seal and shake to coat chicken. Refrigerate at least one hour.

Preheat grill to medium high heat. Oil grate (or grill pan). Grill skin side down, 5-6 minutes.

Flip and continue to cook, about 5 minutes.

I used boned chicken thighs for this (my grocery store doesn't sell boneless but skinned chicken). If you do this, add about 5-10 minutes to the cook time.
