I needed a recipe for chicken thighs and found this, it did not disappoint. Really easy to prepare and simple to cook, the whole family loved it. It is going into our rotation.
I made this for my extended family tonight and it was a huge hit!! It was super easy and I can’t wait to make it again for my family.
This was very good. I had some mushrooms left, so I threw them in half way through the cooking. They soaked up the flavor of the sauce.
Super easy to throw together and sooo yummy! Big hit with the family and healthy too! Winner, winner, chicken dinner. ?
Sooooo good. A perfect marinade that I always have the ingredients for and it's already a go to in our house! Really great with rice to soak up all the tasty sauce that gets left in the pan.
