I made this tonight and did not quite read the recipe through. I was in a hurry and ended up using leg and thigh quarters. While it did end up needing extra time in the oven, it did come out well. It was a HUGE hit for my family.
I've made this a couple of times -- first with clementines and drumsticks, and the second according to the recipe -- and both turned out really well. My husband really enjoyed this recipe!

This was delicious, although I cooked my chicken longer in the oven since I think my pieces may have been larger than the ones Sarah used. The skin was super crispy, and the chicken thighs were very juicy . A quick nd easy recipe.
Very tasty, but balance it out with some healthier sides, like brown rice and veggies. Mine always needs longer to cook, in each stage. I use my cast iron skillet, which works like a charm. My kids love the flavor, but it takes some doing to get them past the skin & the bones!
this has become a staple. we serve this over rice like a rice bowl. Yum! also, we toss in some chunks of orange for a nice refreshing bite.
easy and simple. definitely recommend.
