This week's Garnish & Gather meal featured chicken thighs. I was hesitant. Historically I've been more of a white meat girl. Since confessing my love for Top Chef, I'm embarrassed to admit this. Tom Colicchioregularly touts the superiority of dark meat, but I just wasn't there.
Chef Amy Ponzoli changed my mind. Maybe it was the cherry gastrique, or maybe it was the wine, I'm not sure, but for the first time I saw what all the hype was about. The meat was flavorful and cooked perfectly! The flavor combination of the sweet and tart cherry gastrique and the chicken thighs was heaven.
