Ingredients
Main ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless skinless chicken thighs
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon low sodium soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
Preparation
- Begin by taking the boneless skinless chicken thighs and patting them dry with a paper towel.
- In a bowl, mix together the brown sugar, low sodium soy sauce, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper to create a flavorful marinade.
Cooking
- Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat until hot.
- Add the chicken thighs to the skillet, ensuring not to overcrowd them.
- Cook the chicken on one side until browned and caramelized.
- Carefully flip the chicken thighs and pour the marinade over them.
- Cook until the chicken is fully cooked through and the marinade thickens to a glossy glaze.
- Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest on a plate for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
Pat the chicken dry for an even sear. Adjust the marinade as needed for taste. Letting the chicken rest is important to keep it juicy.
