Instructions

  1. Place first 8 ingredients into a bowl and whisk together. Add prepared vegetables and chicken, stir well. Cover, allow to marinate in fridge for 1-3 hours . The longer the better. Stir occasionally. Remove from fridge

  3. Pour chicken, sauce and veggies onto pan, turn chicken skin side up and leave enough space between pieces for veggies to lay in single layer.

  4. Place in the oven and cook for 30-35 minutes, until thighs are cooked through and browned and veggies are caramelized. Remove chicken from oven and allow to rest for three minutes
