It’s also important to check the internal temperature and texture around the 3-hour mark. Vegetables to substitute … Read more

One Pot Lemon Chicken with Orzo and Grape Tomatoes Can I use boneless, skinless thighs instead? You can substitute boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts for bone-in thighs, but adjustments are needed.
