Rosemary Rhubarb Chicken Thighs

We think of this as an abbreviated version of a full roast chicken (which is a PrimaFoodie favorite). Because this recipe calls for just thighs rather than the entire chicken, cooking time is reduced, as is clean-up. The result is juicy, sweet, and savory. (And your house will smell amazing.)
