Ingredients

  • 1 pound boneless, skin-on chicken thighs 3-4 small
  • 1 pound red grapes
  • 1 tbs olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon ground star anise or 1 whole star NOT anise (make sure it says star anise)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • salt & pepper
  • 6 tbs mild and creamy blue cheese such as gorgonzola
  • 2 sprigs fresh thyme
  • fresh lemon sliced
  • 2 cups arugula

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Season the chicken with ground cinnamon, star anise, salt & pepper.
  • In a wide, deep, oven-safe skillet, heat oil over medium high. Add each piece of seasoned chicken, skin-side down and fry for a few minutes or until golden. Flip and cook for a few more minutes. You're not cooking the chicken all the way through, just developing good color on the skin.
  • Add your grapes to the skillet and transfer to the oven. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.
  • Remove from the oven and top with fresh thyme and blue cheese. Serve over arugula with lemon slices and zest, if desired.
