A flavorful and easy-to-make chicken dish with a zesty lime twist.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking and the right texture.
In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, and paprika.
Mix thoroughly to ensure the spices are evenly distributed.
Squeeze the juice of one lime over the chicken thighs.
Let the chicken sit for a few minutes to absorb the lime flavor.
Coat the chicken thighs in the flour mixture.
Shake off any excess flour to avoid clumping.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken on both sides until golden brown.
This step locks in the juices and adds a nice crust.
Transfer the chicken to a baking dish.
Arrange the chicken in a single layer for even cooking.
Mix the brown sugar and zest of one lime, then sprinkle over the chicken.
The lime zest adds a burst of citrus aroma.
Pour the chicken broth and white wine into the baking dish.
Ensure the liquid covers the bottom of the dish to prevent drying.
Sprinkle fresh mint over the chicken.
Mint adds a refreshing touch to the dish.
Bake uncovered in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.
Check the chicken halfway through to ensure even cooking.
Serve the chicken hot with your choice of sides.
Garnish with extra lime slices for presentation.
