I scaled back for one serve and used what we call a Maryland cut (thigh and drumstick left intact) and allowed 50 to 60 minutes for cooking (mine took 55 minutes) and as I could not get tangerines I used half a large orange and the end result was moist succulent chicken full of flavour, thank you Mikekey for a great dinner, made for For Your Consideration tag game at FF&FF.

A great combination of flavors with just a tinge of heat! My ten chicken thighs were boneless; I used lite soy sauce and the finished dish needed a bit of salt. Served over rice with roasted onions, carrots, and Brussels sprouts. Tagged for Pick Me!
