Berbere Brown Sugar Chicken

These smoky, slightly sweet chicken thighs are braised with orange juice, a touch of brown sugar and berbere spice, that warm, smoky and spicy blend that’s essential to Ethiopian and Eritrean cuisines. Roasted with savory onions and garlic, the chicken develops a rich, saucy base that’s packed with big flavor. The brown sugar mellows the heat of the berbere, creating a deliciously bold, barbecue-like sauce. To save some time in the kitchen, feel free to chop your onions and garlic while the chicken is searing. Enjoy this chicken recipe with roasted carrots and rice, polenta or grits, or shred and use as a filling for tacos.
