# What You'll Need:
→ Chicken
01 - 8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
02 - 1/2 tsp salt
03 - 1/4 tsp black pepper
→ Glaze
04 - 1/3 cup honey
05 - 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
06 - 4 cloves garlic, minced
07 - 1 tbsp rice vinegar or apple cider vinegar
08 - 2 tbsp water
09 - 1 tbsp olive oil
10 - 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
→ Garnish
11 - 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley or green onions
12 - 1 tsp toasted sesame seeds (optional)
# How To Make:
01 - Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
02 - Pat chicken thighs dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
03 - Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Place chicken thighs skin side down and sear for 3-4 minutes, until golden brown. Flip and cook another 2 minutes. Remove chicken and set aside.
04 - In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant. Stir in honey, soy sauce, vinegar, water, and red pepper flakes (if using). Bring to a simmer.
05 - Return chicken thighs to the skillet, skin side up. Spoon glaze over the chicken.
06 - Transfer skillet to the oven. Bake for 18-22 minutes, basting chicken with glaze halfway through, until chicken is cooked through and skin is caramelized.
07 - Remove from oven. Let rest 5 minutes.
08 - Garnish with parsley or green onions and sesame seeds. Serve immediately.
