Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • Optional for serving: sesame seeds and sliced green onions

Method
 

  1. Whisk together the honey, soy sauce, garlic, olive oil, and rice vinegar in a bowl.
  2. Add the chicken and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours.
  3. Heat a grill to medium-high (about 400°F). Grill the chicken 6 to 7 minutes per side until the internal temperature hits 165°F. Or bake at 400°F for 25 to 30 minutes, turning once.
  4. Let the chicken rest 5 minutes, then slice and serve with sesame seeds and green onions.

Notes

Marinating time is not included in prep or cook time. If you set aside some fresh marinade before adding the chicken, boil it in a small pan for 5 minutes and drizzle it over the sliced meat for an extra saucy finish.
