Set aside 14 cup (60 mL) marinade and place remaining marinade in large re-sealable bag or container with cover. Place chicken in bag or container and thoroughly coat. Chill at least 20 minutes. Chicken can be marinated 2 hours ahead - keep chilled.
  2. Preheat skillet on medium heat. When several drops of water sprinkled on skillet skitter and dissipate, reduce heat to medium-low. Remove chicken from marinade, reserve marinade, and place chicken thighs in skillet, skin-side down. Cover with 12" Electric Skillet Cover and cook chicken 5 - 8 minutes, until chicken releases and is browned. Turn, re-cover, and cook other side 5 - 8 minutes.
  3. Serve chicken with reserved marinade and top with remaining scallions

  • An average sized chicken thigh weighs approximately 2 ounces (57 g), not counting skin or bone.
