​Thighs Are Better Than Breasts - July 2018

Approximate $ Savings: $3 or $4.00 a meal
 
When making apricot chicken, use thigh fillets not breast fillets. I was always very anti thigh fillets, but now I know they are cheaper than breast fillets, and a have lot more taste. We use them at work, and they're great.. They cook for longer, and they sure add flavour.

Editor's note: Sometimes breast fillets are the cheaper option at the butcher I use (Australian Butcher), so it pays to check the per kilo price before making a decision. But in saying that, bone in chicken thighs make the most delicous casseroles and stews, as the bone releases so much extra flavour, and they are often cheaper per kilo than the boneless fillets.  Cath
