Sweet crispy crust and flavorful chicken meat. Today I have an unusual experimental recipe. After making trout with a citrus-sugar glaze that my whole family loved, I decided to continue experimenting with brown sugar in hot dishes. This time the choice fell on chicken. To implement the idea, I decided to use chicken thighs. It turned out no less tasty, and most importantly - very quickly. In addition to the thighs, you can use any other part of the chicken, with or without bones.

STEP 1
Prepare the ingredients. You can use thighs with bones, like mine, or without. In addition, we will need half a lemon, brown sugar, French mustard beans, dry garlic, ground black pepper and salt.
STEP 2
Squeeze the juice from half a lemon. Remove the zest and grate on a coarse grater or cut into strips.
STEP 3
Combine lemon juice with grainy mustard and mix well.
STEP 4
Wash chicken thighs and dry with paper towels. Rub on all sides with salt, pepper and dry garlic. If desired, you can additionally use spices for chicken or chicken legs. Place chicken thighs, skin side up, in the bottom of a baking dish.
STEP 5
Sprinkle chicken with brown sugar.
STEP 6
Top chicken thighs with chopped lemon zest.
STEP 7
Pour the lemon-mustard mixture on top. Place the pan in an oven preheated to 200°C for 45 minutes. If the mustard seeds start to burn and the meat is not ready yet, you can cover the pan with foil.
