Ingredients
For the brown sugar rub
- ¼ cup Florida Crystals® Regenerative Organic Light Brown Sugar
- ¼ cup Sea salt
- ¼ cup Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon Onion powder
For the chicken
- 3 pounds Bone-in, skin on chicken thighs, trimmed
- 3 tablespoons Brown sugar rub
- 2 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 3 Cloves of garlic, finely chopped
- 1 medium Orange
- 1/3 cup Florida Crystals® Regenerative Organic Light Brown Sugar
- Fresh oregano, as garnish
Instructions
Step 1
Prepare the rub by combining all the ingredients in a bowl. Whisk until well combined. Transfer to an airtight container.
Step 2
Preheat the oven to 425°F. Season chicken thighs with brown sugar rub. Add to a large oven proof skillet the olive oil, garlic, juice of one orange, and sugar. Stir. Place the chicken on top, skin side up. Place in the oven and roast the chicken until an instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone reads 165°F, about 35-45 minutes. Carefully remove from the oven and allow the chicken to rest for 10 minutes. Drizzle some of the sauce at the bottom of the pan on top of the chicken before serving.
Additional Tips
Use the rub in other savory dishes such as wings, pork, and more.
Serve with Florida Crystals® Regenerative Organic Certified® Long Grain White or Brown rice.
