I have a pack of chicken thighs that I need to use up tonight for dinner but am more than a little bit burned out on chicken and rice variations. Any ideas? I've been flipping through my cookbooks for the last 30 minutes and have found absolutely nothing that looks interesting to me! Gah.
I love cooking and don't even mind the clean up, but seriously, my dream is to hire a professional meal planner so that I always know what to cook!

@dagret: ooooh bookmarking that page! Lots of great ideas. Thanks!
@betsyboop: I haven't tried it or heard of it but it's looking like that's what we'll have tonight! Looks tasty and EASY which is what I'm going for! I'm going to have to have hubs stop at the store for white pepper which I've never actually used before but I'm intrigued.

@lovehoneybee: Glad to see another glowing review! I'll report back with my thoughts after dinner
Now just to decide what to serve it with. Broccoli and maybe potatoes? Hmmm.

I just made Chicken Caccitore with thighs the other night and it was so tasty! It's not a real "recipe" (just how my mom makes it) but basically brown the chicken in a pot, add chopped onion, garlic and a can of crushed tomatoes and simmer approx 45 min. I add a splash of balsamic at the end but you can also use red wine. I also serve with spaghetti.

My favorite recipe (the neely's honey bbq orange chicken) involves marinating it, but the sauce alone is fantastic.
alternatively, deerylou posted man-pleasing chicken and it is SO good. 1/2 cup dijon mustard, 1/4 cup maple syrup (or honey!), 1 TB rice wine vinegar. Line a pan with foil, bake at 450 for 45 min or so maybe. I made it with pork tenderloin last week and it was soooo good.
