Sweet and Spicy Glazed Chicken Thighs

The entire family lived this chicken! Because we enjoy spicy food, I increased the cayenne to 1 teaspoon, rather than half, and it was DELICIOUS! My hubby had requested this be in a regular rotation, lol. The recipe was VERY easy and quick to make. A definite "week-night" recipe.

Loved how simple this was. Going to incorporate this into my meal rotation

So freaking good! It packs a punch but in the best way!

It was easy, and the thighs turned out moist and juicy. Will cut back on the spice next time.

Turned out great! Just make sure to cover your pan after you flip the chicken the first time to cook all the way through. Then uncover to get the sauce thickened and a charbroiled effect!

Soooo good and the instructions were super easy to follow. 10/10 will make again

Love how the recipe comes together quickly.

Really enjoyed this!

Turned out pretty good! Very juicy and super quick and easy. Might mix up some of the spices in bulk for quick meals.

We loved this I like my chicken on the more spicy side so I sprinkled some red pepper flakes in and they gave the dish a slight kick to them also covered the chicken for about 5 minutes to cook the center of the chicken and to caramelize the chicken to make it a little more most and crispy

Not terrible just bland.

Everyone in the family liked it.

Quick and easy and eaten by my chicken-hating kids.

This recipe was great. I prepared it with an air fryer and it was crispy, delicious, sweet, and it had a mild kick.

This will be one of my regulars. Easy and tastes great. Kids had seconds so that’s a keeper in itself.

I added a drizzle of honey and Sriracha on top to boost the flavors, and because I preferred it saucy

Delicious on lettuce salad with ranch dressing!

So good and simpleeee (small tip make sure ur chicken isn’t too thick coz it’s harder to cook)

Super easy and the family loved it…followed advice from a previous reviewer and did a little less brown sugar with more cayenne pepper and I added a little more garlic powder as well.

Great recipe

Ended up making additional of the spice mixture because I needed more. I used bone in chicken thighs with skin removed so I baked for a while after searing in the pan to ensure doneness. It was a tasty dish.

It was different, but we enjoyed it. Used it on shredded chicken in the crockpot and served it over rice.

OPEN ALL YOUR WINDOWS 😂 This is amazing but the sugar being heated will make your kitchen smoky (can you do it outside? Do it outside). I’ve made it with chicken wings, too, but the only way to do that was to steam the wings in the Instant Pot first (essentially par-cooking them, minimizing the time they need to spend in the pan) so they cook quickly. You’re essentially just glazing them that way. No matter which cut of meat you’re using, OPEN YOUR WINDOWS and turn your vent fan on high 😊

Tasted great! I used chicken breasts instead (ran out of thighs) and diced them. Made it with jasmine rice. 🙌

not very saucy but good flavour

Use less sugar, add more cayenne pepper.

7.3 would make in air fryer instead of stove next time

Super yummy! Equal amounts of sweet then you taste the spice. I doubled the recipe because I used three large chicken breasts. I cooked them on low for ten to twelve minutes per side. I also pressed the sugar mixture into each side, then the little extra that was left I put on top while they started cooking.

I added white onions and swapped cayenne pepper for chilli powder. Relatively fast to make. Serve it with some rice and greens.

Turned out delicious! I added the rub and let it sit in the fridge for a few hours before cooking.

super easy and delicious! I had white rice with mine

I only had bone-in chicken thighs so I cooked them in the oven first then did the rest according to the directions, because the glaze probably would have burned before the chicken was cooked through.
