Tangy and slightly sweet, these finger-licking chicken thighs are so easy you'll go back to them time and again. For the marinade, we've used A Date with Tamarind Chutney for a little sweetness, but feel to use straight tamarind paste if you prefer a stronger tart flavor. The tamarind-ginger marinade is also great with tofu, summer squash, onions, peppers, and sweet potato.
