- 3/4 cup green tea, brewed hot
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, coarsely ground
- 2 teaspoons gingerroot, freshly peeled and finely chopped
- 1 garlic clove, large, finely chopped
- 3 tablespoons canola oil, divided
- Stir sugar into tea while hot; let cool. Combine, coriander, salt, black pepper, garlic, ginger and 2 tbsps of the canola oil.Place the chicken in a large ziplock bag and add half of the marinade. Seal the bag and let it chill for 1 - 6 hours.
- Heat the remaining marinade over medium high heat about 4 minutes or until reduced by one-third.
- Remove the thighs from the marinade and discard marinade in the bag. Heat remaining 1 tbsp of oil in a large skillet. Add chicken to skillet without crowding and cook until browned, 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Serve the chicken over the greens and drizzle with remaining sauce.
- Serve over mixed greens of arugula, spinach, cilantro and mint. Steam rice would be nice as well.
- NOTE: If using chicken breasts it will take longer to cook. Make sure they are completely cooked.
