SEARED HERB-MARINATED CHICKEN
Pungent from the fish sauce and garlic, sweet and sour from the honey and lime, and spicy from the jalapeño, the Houston chef Chris Shepherd likes to serve these golden-skinned chicken thighs with a green papaya salad. But anything crunchy and coleslaw-like will fare just as well. The longer you marinate the thighs, the more complex they become; four hours is a bare minimum. If you'd like to use white meat, choose bone-in, skin-on breasts for the juiciest result.

Steps:
- Place scallions, cilantro, garlic, jalapeño, fish sauce, honey, lime juice and 2 tablespoons oil in a blender. Purée until smooth.
- Scrape marinade into a large bowl or resealable plastic bag. Add chicken, tossing to coat, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- Heat oven to 400 degrees. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Use tongs to remove chicken from marinade, letting any excess drip away. Do not pat dry.
- Place chicken in skillet skin-side down and sear until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes (2 to 3 minutes if using skinless chicken), being careful not to let it burn as the sugars from the honey will start to caramelize.
- Flip chicken, transfer to oven, and continue to cook until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer chicken to a cutting board and let it rest for 3 to 4 minutes. Serve with more cilantro, limes wedges and green papaya salad if you like.

DIANA'S GARLIC AND HERBS MARINADED CHICKEN BREASTS
We picked up a bunch of Diana's Marinades when they were on sale and this one looked so good we had to try it right away. This marinade is so flavourful on its own that you don't need to add anything else to this dish! You could marinade the chicken overnight but the marinade is so flavourful we just cook it without marinading overnight.

Tips:
- Choose the right chicken breasts: Look for boneless, skinless chicken breasts that are about the same size so they cook evenly.
- Make sure the marinade has enough time to penetrate the chicken: The longer you marinate the chicken, the more flavorful it will be. Marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes, but up to 24 hours.
- Cook the chicken over medium heat: This will help to prevent the chicken from drying out.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the chicken will not cook evenly. Cook the chicken in batches if necessary.
- Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken: The chicken is done cooking when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the chicken rest before serving: This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.
