Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Step 2

Season chicken thighs with salt and pepper, to taste.

Step 3

Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Add chicken, skin-side down, and sear both sides until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side; set aside.

Step 4

Melt remaining tablespoon butter in the skillet. Add garlic, and cook, stirring frequently, until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat.

Step 5

Stir in brown sugar, honey, oregano, thyme and basil until well combined. Return chicken to the skillet.

Step 6

Place into oven and roast until completely cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 175 degrees F, about 25-30 minutes.

Step 7

Serve immediately, garnished with parsley, if desired.

Chef’s notes

This sweet brown sugar, garlicky crust is to die for. Consider doubling the sauce to serve with other dishes.
