This recipe for Baked Sweet and Sour Chicken Thighs has become part of my “simple meal” dinner rotation. Not only is it easy and delicious, but the clean up is a breeze.

Chicken Dinner

This is my version of a recipe I found in an old Food Network magazine. I changed the ingredient amounts and simplified the cooking process. Fewer dirty dishes is always a plus!

Simply mix up the sweet and sour sauce ingredients, brush the sauce on the chicken, slice up some peppers and you are ready to bake!

In less than an hour, you have a tasty and satisfying meal.
