Sweet & Spicy Chicken

Gave the top half of this recipe a try - will have to go back again for the sweet potato and bacon fritters.

Recipe

8(-ish) bone-in skin-on chicken thighs
1 tbsp coconut oil

Rub
2 tsp garlic powder
2 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1 tsp salt

Glaze
1/4 c honey
1/4 c maple syrup
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar

Preheat oven to 375.  Combine rub ingredients and get it on the chicken.  Heat the oil high in a cast iron skillet and brown the chicken, a few minutes each side to get the skin crispy.  Then transfer to the oven and cook for about 15 minutes.  Meanwhile combine the glaze ingredients, then brush on the chicken and cook until done (at least 10 more minutes).

Notes

The chicken came out well, but it felt like it could have been crispier and spicier.  Some of that may be on me/something that can be fixed.  Still ended up as a nice meal:
