  3. To a bowl, juice the other ½ of the lemon and the remaining orange. Combine with sugar, chili flakes, rosemary and the remaining salt and pepper.
  4. Preheat the oven to 400°F – 200°C.
  5. Heat a large ovenproof skillet or pan over medium. Add chicken thighs skin-side down, cook for 10 minutes, move chicken around every couple of minutes to prevent from sticking to the bottom. Turn, cook for 5 minutes more. Remove thighs from skillet onto a clean plate.
  6. Add garlic and potatoes, cook for 1 minute. Add onion and return the chicken to the skillet, placing the thighs skin-side up.
  7. Drizzle with the prepared citrus sauce and transfer to the oven. Bake for 20 minutes.
