This had so much more flavor than I had expected! I rubbed the spice onto the skin as well as under the skin. I don't eat the skin, so i wanna taste that spice rub! I feel you MUST do the optional: Smash that garlic and drizzle the chicken with the juices at the end. This pan juice is loaded with flavor, tons!

Just caught a bunch of thighs and drumsticks on sale. If I triple this recipe I can go back to the store and buy more.

There is a lot of flavor in the rub. I didn't rub the thighs down well enough or I could have come back with a pic very much like the authors. Was trying to keep my hands from turning yellow.
Think the drippings have way too much fat rendering.
I think a good alternative is to take the skin off. It doesn't crisp up anyhoo. And that would let me get the rub right on the meat of the matter.
Also think cutting a slit in the meat to insert a smashed garlic clove will fit the bill.
Be careful or you'll get yellow all over the place.
Yeah, there is a lot of I think, I think, I thinks in here but there is also a lot of good flavor.
Tripled the recipe without trouble.

I didn't trim off any extra skin and fat from the thighs. Could be that's where a little extra fat rendering came from.

Yours looks just like the original picture, pso. I guess I always decide skin off or skin on if there is a sauce that looks like it would be good on rice or something. If so, I take the skin off so I'm not pouring fat on my rice.

This looks and sounds great. Good tip, Points, regarding the yellow. Without that warning I'd be wearing the tumeric...never really worked with it before. I'm gonna give this one a shot. All the right flavor combos for me.

Yours looks great Points! I can't remember how much pan drippings there were, I don't remember there being an unusual amount though.
