HONEY-AND-SOY-GLAZED CHICKEN THIGHS



Honey-and-Soy-Glazed Chicken Thighs image

In this simple weeknight recipe, chicken thighs are tossed with a sweet-salty glaze made of honey and soy sauce that caramelizes into a sticky coating as it roasts in the oven. Serve the sliced chicken with bibb lettuce cups for wrapping, or over steamed rice to catch all the juices. Leftovers can be chopped and combined with vegetables for a tasty clean-out-the-fridge fried rice.

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons canola oil
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced ginger
6 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce (see tip)
5 tablespoons mild honey, such as clover, acacia or orange blossom
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
Kosher salt and black pepper
8 small bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (about 3 pounds)
Lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 425 degrees. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a small saucepan over low heat. Add the garlic and ginger and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 3 minutes. Add the soy sauce and honey and simmer, stirring occasionally, until reduced and slightly thickened, about 10 minutes. (You'll want to cook attentively for this step, as the syrupy mixture can burn if it cooks too long.) Turn off the heat then whisk in the butter. Season with salt and pepper.
  • On an aluminum foil-lined rimmed baking sheet, season the chicken all over with salt and pepper. Add half the glaze and the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and toss the chicken to coat. Arrange in an even layer, skin side up, and roast until browned, 15 minutes. Brush the chicken all over with 2 tablespoons of the remaining glaze. Roast until golden and cooked through, about 10 minutes.
  • Drizzle the chicken with the remaining glaze and serve with lemon wedges.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before starting to cook, make sure you have all the ingredients and equipment you need. This will help you stay organized and reduce the risk of mistakes.
  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your dish the best flavor. If possible, buy your ingredients from a local market or farm.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment: Feel free to adjust the recipe to your own taste. Add more or less of a particular ingredient, or try a different type of pasta.
  • Cook the chicken thoroughly: Make sure the chicken is cooked all the way through before serving. This can be checked by inserting a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the chicken. The internal temperature should be at least 165 degrees Fahrenheit (74 degrees Celsius).
  • Let the chicken rest: After cooking the chicken, let it rest for a few minutes before cutting it. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.
  • Use a flavorful dressing for the pasta salad: The dressing is what brings the pasta salad together. Make sure to use a dressing that is flavorful and complements the other ingredients in the salad.

Conclusion:

Honey and soy chicken with pasta salad is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a potluck. The chicken is tender and flavorful, and the pasta salad is refreshing and light. This dish is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
