Spicy Garlic & Brown Sugar Chicken Thighs

I can’t believe that Summer will be drawing to a close soon.  It seems like it just began. Even though I am sad to see Summer end I do love everything that the start of Autumn brings.

Cooler temperatures, changing colors, apple and pumpkin picking, fall festivals and definitely football!

 

Spicy Garlic & Brown Sugar Chicken Thighs

We definitely get back on more of a schedule this time of year too and finding quick meals to put together during the week are a must.

Recipes like my Crockpot Chicken Cacciatore {with Red Wine} and Lemon & Rosemary Chicken Thighs are some of my go to recipes for just that reason.

Now I have another one to add to my repertoire with this easy and delicious recipe!

    This was so good! I made it for dinner tonight, and my family loved it. It was sweet, tender, and a little savory with crispy skin. I’m definitely saving this recipe.
