Taste & Role

The preferred cut for stir-fries — stays tender even at high heat.

What it is

Boneless, skinless chicken thighs are the stir-fry cut of choice: they stay juicy under high heat where breast meat turns chalky. Cut against the grain into uniform bite-sized pieces and velvet (starch marinade) for the silkiest result. Thighs also forgive overcooking by a minute or two.
