Ingredients

  • 4 chicken thighs*
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • Chopped fresh parsley or chives for topping

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Pat the chicken thighs dry with a paper towel.
  • Heat the olive oil over medium-high heat in a cast-iron skillet.
  • Once the oil is hot, add the chicken thighs and brown on each side, about 4 minutes each side.
  • While the chicken is browning, combine the honey, soy sauce, red wine vinegar, and garlic in a small bowl and whisk well.
  • Once the chicken is browned, remove the chicken from the skillet and turn off the heat.
  • Add the honey garlic mixture to the oiled pan and whisk well. The pan will likely still be hot, so just let it cook in the residual heat for 1 minute.
  • Return the chicken thighs to the pan and spoon the sauce over them.
  • Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes, or until a meat thermometer reads 165 degrees F. Note: using a meat thermometer is the best way to ensure properly cooked meat!
  • Serve topped with chopped parsley or chives.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

I used skin-on and bone-in, but skinless and boneless would work, too!
