Brown “Sugar” Garlic Chicken Thighs (Low-Carb, Sugar-Free, THM:S!)

April 3, 2018 by Cate H 6 Comments

This post might include affiliate links for products that I know and LOVE!

This is one of the easiest recipes that I make for my family, but it’s one of the best! My husband says this one is “restaurant-worthy” which is his highest compliment. I like this chicken recipe because it comes together in a cinch and requires no special ingredients.

Brown Sugar Garlic Chicken

This recipe is a converted recipe with my own twist added. I used to make a plain brown sugar and garlic chicken using just those two ingredients. It was tasty but very sugary! This one has a little more flavor and is a LOT better for you. Because this dish doesn’t use any crazy ingredients, it’s very family-friendly! It’s also frugal. I used chicken thighs for this recipe, but you can use any type of chicken.

I like to serve this dish with green fries and a side salad. This recipe serves 6-8 people, nutritional info is for 6 servings. 🙂

    My hubby uses the “I’d order this at a restaurant” praise too.
