Provided by Essanaye

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     Asian

Time 1h40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

½ cup rice vinegar
5 tablespoons honey
⅓ cup soy sauce (such as Silver Swan®)
¼ cup Asian (toasted) sesame oil
3 tablespoons Asian chili garlic sauce
3 tablespoons minced garlic
salt to taste
8 skinless, boneless chicken thighs
1 tablespoon chopped green onion

Steps:

  • Whisk the vinegar, honey, soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, chili garlic sauce, garlic, and salt in a bowl until smooth. Pour half the marinade into a large plastic zipper bag; retain the other half of the sauce. Place the chicken thighs into the bag containing marinade, squeeze all the air out of the bag, and seal. Shake a few times to coat chicken; refrigerate for 1 hour, turning bag once or twice.
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Pour the other half of the marinade into a saucepan over medium heat, bring to a boil, and cook for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring often, to thicken sauce. Remove the chicken from the bag; discard used marinade. Place chicken thighs into a 9x13-inch baking dish, and brush with 1/3 of the thickened marinade from the saucepan.
  • Bake 30 minutes, basting one more time after 10 minutes; an instant-read thermometer inserted into a chicken thigh should read 165 degrees F (75 degrees C). Let stand for 5 or 10 minutes; meanwhile, bring remaining marinade back to a boil for 1 or 2 minutes, and serve chicken with marinade. Sprinkle with green onions.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh tangerines for the marinade. If you don't have fresh tangerines, you can use bottled tangerine juice, but the flavor will not be as good.
  • Be sure to marinate the chicken thighs for at least 30 minutes, but no longer than 24 hours. This will allow the flavors of the marinade to penetrate the chicken and make it more flavorful.
  • When grilling the chicken thighs, be sure to cook them over medium heat. This will help to prevent the chicken from burning and will also allow it to cook evenly.
  • If you don't have a grill, you can also cook the chicken thighs in a skillet over medium heat. Just be sure to cover the skillet so that the chicken cooks evenly.
  • Serve the chicken thighs with your favorite sides, such as rice, vegetables, or salad.
