Easy Sriracha Brown Sugar Chicken
Happy Friday dear friends, I have a fun announcement, going forward I will be contributing recipes twice a month. Today I am sharing a Brown Sugar Chicken for which you need only 5 ingredients and one pan!
Lately, I have been completely obsessed with Sriracha sauce, and you know, you can never go wrong with brown sugar especially when butter is involved. This easy Brown Sugar Chicken is perfect for a weeknight meal, it’s budget-friendly and you will be rewarded with a juicy and tender chicken, with a crispy, seared top.
That brown sugar garlicky and spicy sauce is amazing, you will probably want to make a double batch of the sauce so you can put it on everything. We ended up dipping some crusty, freshly baked bread into it until all the sauce was gone.
