Description
Discover how to make Sticky Honey Garlic Chicken Thighs with this easy recipe Perfectly glazed savory and sweet for any meal
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 large chicken thighs (bone-in, skin-on)
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 4 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 green onions, sliced
Instructions
- Step: In a bowl, mix honey, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, rice vinegar, and black pepper. Place the chicken thighs in a resealable bag, pour the marinade over, and seal tightly. Massage the marinade into the chicken for about 2 minutes, ensuring even coverage. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or for best results, marinate overnight.
- Step: While the chicken is marinating, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Step: Remove the chicken from the marinade, reserving the marinade for later use. Place the thighs skin-side up in a baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
- Step: While the chicken bakes, pour the reserved marinade into a small saucepan. Bring it to a simmer over medium heat, reducing it for about 5-7 minutes until it thickens slightly.
- Step: Once cooked, remove the chicken from the oven and brush the reduced marinade over each thigh. Return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes.
- Step: Once the chicken is beautifully glazed, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes. Garnish with sliced green onions for added visual appeal.
