Sticky Hoisin Chicken: An Incredible Ultimate Recipe for Everyone


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

Ingredients

– 1.5 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
– 1/2 cup hoisin sauce
– 2 tablespoons soy sauce
– 1 tablespoon honey
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
– 1 tablespoon sesame oil
– 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
– 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
– 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (for garnish)
– 3 green onions, chopped (for garnish)


Instructions

Creating Sticky Hoisin Chicken can be straightforward if you follow these simple steps:

1. Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together hoisin sauce, soy sauce, honey, garlic, ginger, sesame oil, rice vinegar, and black pepper.
2. Marinate the Chicken: Add the chicken thighs to the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Let them marinate for at least 15 minutes (or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator for deeper flavor).
3. Heat the Pan: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add a little oil and let it heat up.
4. Cook the Chicken: Remove the chicken from the marinade (reserve the marinade) and place it in the hot skillet. Cook for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until the chicken is browned and cooked through.
5. Add the Marinade: Pour the reserved marinade over the chicken in the skillet. Bring to a simmer and let it cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken.
6. Garnish: Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle the chicken with sesame seeds and chopped green onions.
7. Serve: Transfer the chicken to a serving platter and drizzle with any remaining sauce from the skillet.
