Ingredients:
- 4 chicken thighs (skinless and boneless)
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon minced ginger
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Chopped green onions for garnish
- Sesame seeds for garnish (optional)
Instructions:
- First things first, let’s marinate that chicken! In a bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, and minced ginger. Once it’s all mixed, add the chicken thighs, and let them soak in that goodness for at least 30 minutes. If you got time, letting it marinate longer in the fridge is even better!
- Now, grab a skillet and heat that olive oil over medium-high heat. Once it’s nice and hot, take that chicken out of the marinade (but don’t throw away the marinade just yet!) and place the chicken in the skillet.
- Cook the chicken for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until it’s golden brown and cooked through. Make sure to keep an eye on that sizzle!
- While the chicken is cooking, take the leftover marinade and pour it into a small saucepan. Bring it to a boil and let it simmer for about 5 minutes until it thickens up a bit. This will be the delicious sauce that you pour over your chicken!
- Once the chicken is done, take it off the heat and drizzle that sweet garlic sauce all over it. Get those flavors melded together!
- To finish, sprinkle some chopped green onions and sesame seeds on top if you got ’em. This adds that final touch of flavor and looks pretty too!
- Serve this Sweet Garlic Chicken over rice or with your favorite veggies, and enjoy every bite!
Now that’s what I call a real flavor explosion! This Sweet Garlic Chicken is sure to become a staple in your kitchen. So get to cooking, and let those aromas fill your home!
