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.

  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!
