This roasted chicken thighs recipe was inspired by
Jamie Oliver's TV series. This English guy is an extraordinary chef. I adore his unpretentious way of cooking, and I love him for his efforts to change school food and end mental retardation and sickness among children. He cooks as if he is playing a fascinating game. His style reminds me how I "cooked" for my dolls: a few leaves and a few flowers, a pinch of this and a dash of that, and voila! - you have a fabulous dinner. I never saw Jamie measure things, he goes by his instinct and taste. Most of the ingredients he uses come from his garden, and he touches them with heart while cooking. His food is rustic, but captivating. After watching him one would like to never leave the kitchen, and cook cook cook.
I was so inspired by one of episodes that made a trip to my favorite organic farm to buy chicken thighs. Alas! - I couldn't get freshly dug young potatoes that were part of the recipe, and actually I changed the recipe a bit, but in spite of this the result was phenomenal.
