Cooking Tips:
For the most simple preparation, follow these steps to experience the true flavor of our Green Circle boneless skinless chicken thighs.
Bring the chicken to room temperature for at least 30 minutes before cooking. This ensures that the chicken will cook evenly. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) while you wait.
Season the chicken generously with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices. Heat an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat with a tablespoon of oil. Once the skillet is hot, place the chicken thighs in the skillet and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until browned. Searing before roasting adds flavor and texture to the finished dish.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and roast the chicken for 10-12 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Use a meat thermometer to check the temperature.
Remove and let the chicken rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. Resting before serving allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in more moist and flavorful chicken.
On the Grill:
Place the chicken thighs on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side until browned and cooked through. Grilling adds a smoky flavor and crisp texture to the chicken, making it a delicious and healthy option for outdoor cooking. Serve the grilled chicken with your favorite sides, such as grilled vegetables, corn on the cob, or a fresh salad.
Our exclusive Green Circle chicken is raised by a network of small Amish and Mennonite family farms in Pennsylvania and certified by Humane Farm Animal Care.
The chickens eat a diet which includes clean surplus vegetables from markets - bruised, cut or otherwise unattractive vegetables - along with cuttings and peelings from restaurant kitchens and grains like corn and soy.
Green Circle chickens enjoy more than twice the barn space required to be considered free-range, they have access to the outdoors and the ability to forage naturally, and are raised to 8 weeks of age, as opposed to 5 or 6 weeks, which is standard for commercially-raised chicken. Green Circle chickens are air-chilled and hand processed in a low-volume facility near the farms where they are raised.
