Description

With sesame oil, honey, and plenty of fresh garlic, this recipe for Honey Garlic Baked Chicken Thighs is unbelievably flavorful! If you like a sweet, sticky chicken with crispy skin, this recipe is for you!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 to 8 bone-in skin-on chicken thighs
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
  • ⅓ cup honey
  • ½ cup low sodium soy sauce
  • 4 to 6 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seed oil
  • 1 teaspoon rice vinegar
  • ½ teaspoon hot sauce
  • toasted sesame seeds, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 400˚F.
  2. Step 2: Lightly grease a 9×13 baking dish with cooking spray; set aside.
  3. Step 3: In a shallow plate combine the flour, oregano, salt, and pepper; mix to combine.
  4. Step 4: Pat dry the chicken thighs with paper towels. Coat each chicken thigh in the flour mixture, then transfer to the baking dish in one single layer. Set aside.
  5. Step 5: In a small mixing bowl whisk together the honey, soy sauce, garlic, parsley, sesame seed oil, rice vinegar, and hot sauce. Pour over the chicken thighs and coat them evenly with the honey garlic sauce. Flip them over to coat on both sides.
  6. Step 6: Bake, uncovered, for 30 to 35 minutes or until done. Chicken is cooked through when the internal temperature registers at 165˚F.
  7. Step 7: Remove from oven; transfer to a serving plate and let stand for 5 to 8 minutes.
  8. Step 8: Garnish with sesame seeds and serve.

Notes

Use cornstarch instead of flour for a gluten-free version. Maple syrup is a great alternative to honey. For a gluten-free dish, try tamari or coconut aminos instead of soy sauce.
