This is the perfect weeknight meal! In under 30 minuets you can whip these chicken thighs up with ease!

Also, total bonus, this recipe is Whole 30!

I love how easy this recipe is to make! For a side, I roasted some plbell peppers and headed some pre-riced, cauliflower rice!

I have found getting my cauliflower pre-riced is so much easier and wayyyy cheaper than buying it fresh! Usually I can find a head of cauliflower for $4. However, I’ve found cauliflower rice at just over $1 at Walmart. I highly recommend this method!

This recipe is crazy simple and freak’n delicious! It has a subtle sweet taste thanks to the oranges (or mandrins) just use what’s cheapest or what you have at home! 🙂 Because we use the fruit for flavor we also don’t need to add in any sweetness for a glaze! So this recipe is whole 30 approved! However, if you do like a REALLY sweet glaze, feel free to add in a couple tbsp of honey.

Instructions
  1. In a small bowl add all the ingredients (except chicken thighs and coconut oil).
  2. Whisk together ingredients and set aside.
  3. In a large skillet heat heat coconut oil on medium heat until it has fully melted. This will help prevent the chicken from sticking to the pan.
  4. Add the chicken thighs to the skillet.
  5. Cook each side for about one minute.
  6. Pour in the sauce over the chicken until the sauce has completely reduced, flipping the chicken every couple minutes.
  7. Allow chicken to rest for about 5-10 minuets before serving.
  8. Enjoy!
