Instructions

- Place chicken, skin side down, in mixture and bring to a simmer, over medium heat, for 10 minutes.
- Transfer your skillet to your oven and cook, or transfer to an oven safe pan, covered in tinfoil for easier cleanup. Make sure your chicken thighs are skin side down. Leave it uncovered to bake for 30 minutes.
- Flip chicken over, skin side up and continue to cook, uncovered, for about 25 minutes longer.

Notes
- Be sure to check the post above for more information about ingredients, substitutions, serving ideas, and more.
- Use an oven-safe skillet for easy transfer of ingredients from the stovetop to the oven.
- Make sure to dissolve all the sugar in the marinade before adding the chicken thighs into the pan for cooking.
- For an even crispier skin, pat the chicken thighs with a paper towel before placing them in the oven-safe skillet.
- Cook chicken skin side down first. Then flip them over and cook the skin side up in order to achieve optimal crispiness of skin while maintaining juicy meat inside each thigh piece.
- Broil the top of the chicken right at the end for an even crispier outer skin.
- Cook the chicken in a single layer in the pan.
