For the Marinade:

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, and Sriracha sauce to create the marinade.

  2. Place the chicken thighs in a large zip-top bag or shallow dish.

  3. Pour half of the marinade over the chicken thighs, reserving the other half for later.

  4. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to marinate. For a deeper flavor, you can marinate for several hours or overnight.

  5. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

  6. Remove the chicken thighs from the marinade and place them on the prepared baking sheet, skin side up.

  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and the skin is crispy.

  8. While the chicken is baking, transfer the reserved marinade to a small saucepan. Bring it to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 5-7 minutes or until the sauce thickens.

  9. Brush the cooked chicken thighs with the thickened glaze.

  10. Serve the Asian Glazed Chicken Thighs over cooked rice, garnished with sesame seeds and sliced green onions.

Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!

It’s National Splurge Day — And BOGO Week Just Started at Five Major Chains

BOGO Week is a great opportunity to share a meal rather than eat double — splitting the second item with someone means you get the deal without doubling your calorie intake. Of the five options this week, the Tropical Smoothie Cafe BOGO is the most nutritionally sound choice, since smoothies made with real fruit provide natural vitamins and fiber. The Subway BOGO on a 6-inch sub is another smart pick — load it up with vegetables and choose a lean protein like turkey to keep the meal balanced. If you’re hitting multiple chains this week, spacing them out across the full seven days rather than stacking them in one or two days is a practical way to enjoy the savings without overdoing it.

The Curious Life of Food Trends and Why They Keep Coming Back

Research on dietary trends and public health consistently finds that food trends driven by genuine nutritional evidence — the Mediterranean diet, the increased consumption of fermented foods, the shift toward whole grains and legumes — produce lasting improvements in population dietary quality, while trends driven primarily by marketing or social signaling tend to produce short-term behavioral changes that revert when the trend recedes. The most durable dietary improvements come from understanding why specific foods are nutritionally valuable rather than simply following the cultural moment that made them fashionable — making nutritional literacy a more reliable guide to healthy eating than trend-following.
