Chicken thighs, need a 101 please!

Hi girls,

I am a bull in the china shop when it comes to anything relating to kitchens and cooking. I want to start making some good stuff though, and have heard good things about chicken. I do not like white meat, and chicken breasts really do not sit well with me (literally) but I've heard chicken thighs are a little fattier/darker cut of meat.

So, pretend I buy some chicken thighs...take them home, put them in the freezer, and now they're all frozen and I decide "hey, lets make some chicken thighs to go w/ our salad!" ...

What do I do? How do I defrost them? Season? Marinate? Cook? I have an oven and also a very small George Forman. I have a grill too but prefer to use the GF or oven if possible but I do not want to sacrifice taste (bad taste from my cooking efforts in the past has lead me to shy away from cooking at all!)
