Ingredients

2.5 pounds bone-in chicken pieces
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon sea salt
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 (.18 ounce) packet sazon seasoning
2 tablespoons white sugar
3 bok choy stalks, chopped

Instructions

In a shallow dish, combine the garlic powder, salt, cayenne pepper, and sazon seasoning. Thoroughly coat each chicken piece with the prepared spice mixture.
Preheat a Dutch oven or heavy skillet with a lid over medium heat for a minimum of 3 minutes. Evenly sprinkle the sugar over the pan bottom, and gently stir until it melts into a liquid caramel. Introduce the chicken pieces, cover the pan, and cook for approximately 25 minutes.
Remove the lid and continue cooking for an additional 15 to 20 minutes, allowing the flavorful juices to reduce until nearly evaporated. Incorporate the bok choy, and cook until it has just wilted to perfection.
