Honey Soy Chicken Thighs

These Honey Soy Chicken Thighs are deliciously sticky, sweet, and savory. Perfect for a weeknight dinner or special occasions!

  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

4 chicken thighs (bone-in, skin-on)
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup honey
2 cloves garlic (minced)
1 tablespoon fresh ginger (grated)
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 green onions (sliced, for garnish)

Instructions

1. In a bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and black pepper.
2. Place the chicken thighs in a resealable bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Seal or cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes (or up to overnight).
3. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
4. Remove chicken from the marinade and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Reserve the marinade.
5. Bake chicken thighs in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C), basting with the reserved marinade halfway through.
6. Once done, let rest for a few minutes before serving.
7. Garnish with sliced green onions before serving.

Notes

This dish pairs well with steamed rice or vegetables. For extra flavor, consider adding chili flakes to the marinade for some heat.
