The best chicken ever ❤️ or as my friend likes to call it…”el mejor put* pollo”😂. I rarely crave chicken, but I had some thighs in the fridge that needed to be made, so I came up with this amazing recipe. I made it for my friends, which was risky because I had never done it before. Needless to say, it turned out freaking amazing!

First, mix yogurt, caper brine, olive oil, lemon zest, grated garlic, 1 tsp salt and za’atar. Then, add in chicken and let sit for 1-4 hours.
Secondly, place chicken in a cookie sheet. Then, sprinkle some salt on the top and roast at 425F for 35-45 minutes and broil 1-2 minutes to get extra crispy skin. Basting once or twice.
Then, with a bit of olive oil sauté the shallots and capers for 2 minutes on medium, add in wine and reduce by 3/4. Squeeze lemon, add honey, a bit of salt and cook 1-2 minutes. Then, turn heat off and add butter, emulsify until you get a creamy sauce.
Lastly, serve sauce on the bottom to keep the chicken skin crispy!
