Steps
1
Preheat your oven to 425 degrees. Spray a 9x13 pan with non stick cooking spray. If you want to be fancy, line the bottom of the pan with orange slices (optional).
2
In a small saucepan, combine the orange juice, orange zest, rice vinegar, soy sauce, brown sugar, ginger, and red pepper flakes. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for about 5 minutes.
3
Place your chicken thighs skin-side up in the prepared baking dish. Pour half of the glaze over the chicken thighs.
4
Cook in the oven for about 30 minutes. Take the remaining glaze and pour it over the chicken.
5
Cook for an additional 15-20 minutes. The skin will get nice and crisp and browned.
