Directions

  3. After marinating, transfer the chicken and all of the marinade to a sheet pan. Sprinkle the chicken thighs with the dark brown sugar and pour the white wine around the pan.
  4. Bake for 20 minutes. Carefully, add the prosciutto slices to the pan around the chicken and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes or until the chicken has reached an internal temperature of 165ºF and is browned and crisp.
