California Farm Tea Smoked Chicken Quarter or Turkey Thigh

I prepare duck this way, but our guests love chicken quarters or turkey thigh prepared this way too. The secret here is to use loose tea leaves you save daily, or you can get in any asian store or on line. I prefer lapsong souchong, it is a smoked tea.

One quarter chicken leg or one turkey thigh feeds two people, served over a bed of fried rice with fresh sliced orange. The drink of choice for this meal is dark beer.

I teach people at the farmers market to grow small scale fruits and vegetables. My grandparents and parents taught me growing, cooking and preserving home grown fruits and vegetables, eggs, meats and fish. I got certified by the University of California Master Gardener Program in 2005. I try to bring out the original flavor of ingredients, then add layers of spices, herbs and flavorings that enhance, not distort the taste. These are the global, organic and vegan family recipes we use.
