Time 1h35m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 c lime juice (or 6 limes)
2 tsp lime zest
1/2 c orange juice
1/4 c soy sauce, low sodium
1/4 c honey
8 chicken thighs, skinless, bone-in
1 Tbsp olive oil
salt and pepper, to taste
2/3 c cup chopped shallots, from 2 shallots
lime wedges, for garnish

Steps:

  • 1. 1. In a small bowl, whisk the lime juice and 1 teaspoon of the lime zest together with the orange juice, soy sauce and honey. Transfer mixture to a Ziploc® Brand Storage Bag with the Smart Zip™ Seal and add the chicken thighs. Let the chicken marinate in the refrigerator for one hour.
  • 2. 2.Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Heat the oil in a large, oven-safe nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade, reserving marinade. Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper. Place the chicken pieces in the skillet and cook for about 6 minutes, turning once. Remove the thighs and set aside. Add the shallots to the pan and cook over medium heat for 2 minutes, until softened. Add the reserved marinade and bring to a boil. Cook for about 5 minutes, until the liquid begins to get a bit syrupy. Add the chicken pieces and transfer the pan to the oven. Cook for 20 minutes, turning the pieces once.
  • 3. 3. Transfer the chicken pieces to a serving platter. Pour the glaze over the chicken and sprinkle with the remaining 1 teaspoon of lime zest. Garnish with lime wedges.
  • 4. Make the marinade for these chicken thighs ahead of time, and dinner's as easy as tossing them in the oven or on the grill. Serve them with a cool potato salad or pasta salad for a satisfying, no-fuss meal.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients prepped and measured. This will help you stay organized and make the cooking process go more smoothly.
  • Choose the Right Chicken: Use boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs for this recipe. If you're using chicken breasts, pound them to an even thickness so they cook evenly.
  • Make the Marinade: The marinade is what gives the chicken its delicious flavor. Be sure to whisk all of the ingredients together until they are well combined.
  • Marinate the Chicken: Allow the chicken to marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight. This will help the flavors to penetrate the chicken.
  • Cook the Chicken: When you're ready to cook the chicken, preheat your oven or grill to the desired temperature. Cook the chicken until it is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
  • Make the Glaze: While the chicken is cooking, make the glaze by whisking together all of the ingredients in a small bowl. Once the chicken is cooked, brush the glaze over the chicken and broil for a few minutes, or until the glaze is bubbly and caramelized.
  • Serve: Serve the chicken immediately with your favorite sides. Enjoy!

Conclusion:

This honey lime glazed chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The chicken is tender and juicy, with a slightly crispy glaze that is sweet, tangy, and flavorful. Serve it with your favorite sides for a complete meal that everyone will love.
