Easy Honey Garlic Soy Sauce Chicken: An Incredible 7-Step Recipe


  • Author: Chef Ethan Sam
  • Total Time: 40 minutes

Ingredients

– 4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
– ½ cup soy sauce
– ¼ cup honey
– 4 cloves garlic, minced
– 2 tablespoons rice vinegar (or apple cider vinegar)
– 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
– 1 teaspoon grated ginger (optional)
– 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (for garnish)
– 2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)


Instructions

Making Easy Honey Garlic Soy Sauce Chicken is a simple process. Just follow these steps:

1. Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, rice vinegar, vegetable oil, and grated ginger until well combined.
2. Marinate the Chicken: Place the chicken thighs in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring it is well-coated. Allow it to marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to overnight in the refrigerator for deeper flavor).
3. Heat the Pan: In a large skillet, heat a small amount of oil over medium-high heat.
4. Cook the Chicken: Remove the chicken from the marinade (reserve the marinade) and place it in the hot skillet. Cook for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until the chicken is browned and cooked through.
5. Add Marinade to the Pan: Once the chicken is fully cooked, pour the reserved marinade into the skillet. Bring it to a simmer over medium heat and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
6. Check for Doneness: Ensure that the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (75°C).
7. Garnish and Serve: Once cooked, remove from heat, and garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions before serving.

Following these straightforward steps will make your Easy Honey Garlic Soy Sauce Chicken both enjoyable to prepare and delicious to eat!
