The main was a hit - the skin got nice and crispy, everyone (including kids) ate it and there was enough for lunch the next day.

From my local grocery, 3.5lbs of chicken thighs was 7 thighs (recipe wanted 8). We ate 4.5 thighs. My kids are young (3 & 5), I'm a bit nervous about what happens when they get older. Will I need to double the recipe just for dinner?
