Ingredients

– 4-6 chicken thighs, bone-in and skin-on

– Salt and pepper to taste

– Sesame seeds, for garnish (optional)


Instructions

Creating Honey Garlic Chicken Thighs is simple when following these straightforward steps:

1. Preheat oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Make the sauce: In a bowl, mix honey, minced garlic, soy sauce, olive oil, ground ginger, salt, and pepper.
3. Prepare chicken: Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels to ensure crispy skin.
4. Season the chicken: Season both sides of the chicken thighs with salt and pepper.
5. Sear the chicken: In an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat, add a little olive oil. Sear the chicken thighs skin-side down for 3-5 minutes, until golden brown.
6. Add sauce: Flip the chicken thighs and pour the honey garlic mixture over the top.
7. Bake: Transfer the skillet to the oven. Bake for about 25-30 minutes until done and internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
8. Baste chicken: Halfway through cooking, baste the chicken thighs with the sauce for extra flavor.
9. Rest the chicken: Once done, let the chicken rest for about 5 minutes before serving.
10. Garnish: Sprinkle with chopped green onions and sesame seeds, if desired, for added flavor and visual appeal.
