Скачать или смотреть Juicy Golden Chicken Thighs Recipe (Easy and Delicious).

🥘 Ingredients

2 lbs chicken thighs

Juice of ½ fresh lemon

3–4 garlic cloves, crushed

1 tsp salt

1 tsp sweet paprika

½ tsp black pepper

½ tsp cumin

1 tsp dried parsley (or fresh parsley at the end)

4 tbsp oil

4 tbsp sugar (for caramelization)

½ cup water (for tenderness, optional)

🔪 Preparation
1. Marinate the Chicken

In a bowl, add the chicken thighs.

Pour in the lemon juice and mix well.

Add garlic, salt, paprika, black pepper, cumin, and parsley.

Mix until all pieces are evenly coated.

(Optional) Let it rest for 20–30 minutes to deepen the flavors.

2. Caramelize with Sugar

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Add the oil, then sprinkle in the sugar evenly across the bottom.

Allow the sugar to melt and lightly caramelize (but not burn).

3. Sear the Chicken

Place the chicken thighs skin-side down onto the caramelized sugar.

Let them sear without moving for a few minutes until golden brown.

Flip and brown the other side.

4. Cook Through

Once browned, the chicken will release juices.

Allow it to cook until liquid reduces.

Add ½ cup of water to ensure tenderness.

Cover and simmer for 10 minutes, then uncover and let excess liquid evaporate.

5. Finish & Serve

Once the chicken is golden, juicy, and cooked through, turn off the heat.

Garnish with fresh parsley.

Serve with rice, roasted potatoes, or fresh salad.

🌟 Tips for Extra Juiciness

Don’t overcrowd the pan: this ensures even browning.

Bone-in, skin-on thighs will give more flavor and moisture.

Resting time: let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving to lock in juices.
