GLAZED HONEY SOY CHICKEN THIGHS



Glazed Honey Soy Chicken Thighs image

Tired of boring old chicken breasts? Solve the dinner dilemma with a fast and fresh recipe for Glazed Honey Soy Chicken Thighs.

Provided by Kelly Senyei

Time 1h45m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup low sodium soy sauce
1/2 cup honey
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1/4 cup vegetable oil
2 Tablespoons minced garlic
1 Tablespoon minced fresh ginger
2 Tablespoons chopped scallions
8 large bone-in, skin on chicken thighs
2 teaspoons cornstarch

Steps:

  • In a large sealable bag, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, lime juice, vegetable oil, garlic, ginger, scallions and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Add the chicken thighs, seal the bag, then carefully move the chicken around in the bag until it's well coated. Refrigerate the chicken for 1 hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F with the rack in the center. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place an oven-proof baking wrack on top.
  • Remove the chicken from the bag, reserving the marinade. Shake off any excess marinade from the chicken then arrange the thighs skin-side up on the baking rack. Bake the chicken for 15 minutes. While the chicken is baking, make the glaze.
  • Whisk together the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons water. Add the reserved marinade to a small saucepan set over medium-high heat. Bring the marinade to a boil then whisk in the cornstarch slurry and continue boiling, whisking intermittently, until the sauce thickens to the consistency of syrup, about 5 minutes. (The glaze must come to a boil to get rid of any potential bacteria from the raw chicken.) Remove the glaze from the stove.
  • Remove the chicken thighs from the oven and brush them generously with the glaze. Return them to the oven until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F and the juices run clear and not pink, an additional 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Remove the chicken from the oven, brush it with additional glaze and serve.

Provided by Anna Stockwell

Categories     Chicken     Kid-Friendly     Honey     Soy Sauce     Vinegar     Ginger     Broccoli     Rice     Green Onion/Scallion     Sesame Oil     Small Plates     Dinner     Quick & Easy

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 Tbsp. honey
3 Tbsp. soy sauce or tamari
3 Tbsp. unseasoned rice vinegar
1 tsp. finely grated ginger (from one 2" piece)
1 Tbsp. vegetable oil
4 skinless, boneless chicken thighs
1 1/2 tsp. kosher salt, divided, plus more
1 large head of broccoli, cut into florets
Steamed rice (for serving)
Sliced scallions, toasted sesame seeds, and hot sesame oil (for serving; optional)

Steps:

  • Whisk honey, soy sauce, vinegar, and ginger in a small bowl.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Pat chicken dry and season with 1 tsp. salt. Cook cut side up (you want the smooth side with the most surface area to hit the pan first) until deeply golden brown, 8-10 minutes. Pour sauce over chicken and reduce heat to medium-low. Turn chicken and continue to cook, spooning sauce over occasionally, until sauce is syrupy and chicken is cooked through, 6-8 minutes more.
  • Meanwhile, set a steamer basket in a large pot filled with about 1" salted water. Cover pot and bring water to a boil. Add broccoli, cover, and steam until just tender, 4-5 minutes. Season broccoli with remaining 1/2 tsp. salt.
  • Transfer chicken to a platter. Spoon any remaining sauce over. Serve with rice and broccoli alongside. Top chicken with scallions, sesame seeds, and sesame oil (if using).

HONEY-AND-SOY-GLAZED CHICKEN THIGHS



Honey-and-Soy-Glazed Chicken Thighs image

In this simple weeknight recipe, chicken thighs are tossed with a sweet-salty glaze made of honey and soy sauce that caramelizes into a sticky coating as it roasts in the oven. Serve the sliced chicken with bibb lettuce cups for wrapping, or over steamed rice to catch all the juices. Leftovers can be chopped and combined with vegetables for a tasty clean-out-the-fridge fried rice.

Provided by Kay Chun

Categories     dinner, easy, lunch, weeknight, poultry, main course

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons canola oil
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced ginger
6 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce (see tip)
5 tablespoons mild honey, such as clover, acacia or orange blossom
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
Kosher salt and black pepper
8 small bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (about 3 pounds)
Lemon wedges, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 425 degrees. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a small saucepan over low heat. Add the garlic and ginger and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 3 minutes. Add the soy sauce and honey and simmer, stirring occasionally, until reduced and slightly thickened, about 10 minutes. (You'll want to cook attentively for this step, as the syrupy mixture can burn if it cooks too long.) Turn off the heat then whisk in the butter. Season with salt and pepper.
  • On an aluminum foil-lined rimmed baking sheet, season the chicken all over with salt and pepper. Add half the glaze and the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and toss the chicken to coat. Arrange in an even layer, skin side up, and roast until browned, 15 minutes. Brush the chicken all over with 2 tablespoons of the remaining glaze. Roast until golden and cooked through, about 10 minutes.
  • Drizzle the chicken with the remaining glaze and serve with lemon wedges.

HONEY & SOY CHICKEN



Honey & soy chicken image

This crowd-pleasing honey and soy chicken is great for family meals, buffets and picnics. Serve with rice and salad or steamed greens

Provided by Roopa Gulati

Categories     Dinner

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 skin-on chicken thighs (about 1kg)
4 tbsp honey
4 tbsp dark soy sauce
4 tbsp lemon juice
4 tbsp tomato ketchup
30g ginger, peeled and finely grated
4 garlic cloves, crushed
½ tsp red chilli flakes
2 tsp fennel seeds, toasted and ground using a pestle and mortar or spice grinder
1 tbsp sunflower oil
spring onions, rice and salad or greens, to serve

Steps:

  • Using a sharp knife, score the chicken thighs twice through the skin, season and transfer to a bowl.
  • Whisk the honey with the soy, lemon juice, ketchup, ginger, garlic, chilli flakes and fennel seeds. Pour this over the chicken, making sure that each piece is coated, then cover and marinate in the fridge for at least 2-3 hrs, or overnight if you have time.
  • Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/ gas 6. Line a large roasting tin with foil and put in the oven to heat up for 10 mins. Gently shake the excess marinade off the chicken thighs, reserving the bowl of leftover marinade, then carefully arrange in a single layer in the hot tin. Drizzle with the oil and roast for 10 mins.
  • Meanwhile, pour the reserved marinade into a small pan and bring to the boil over a medium-low heat, stirring often. Cook for 7-10 mins, or until thick and syrupy.
  • Remove the chicken from the oven and carefully pour any juices from the tin into the pan with the syrupy sauce and continue to cook for 5 mins until the sauce is the consistency of double cream.
  • Spoon the sauce over the chicken, then return the roasting tin to the oven for 10-15 mins more, or until the thighs are sticky and tender, and the juices run clear when pierced with a knife. Slice some spring onions along their length and scrape a knife along the shreds to curl them, if you like, then scatter over the chicken. Serve warm or at room temperature with rice and salad or steamed greens.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken: For best results, use boneless, skinless chicken thighs or breasts. These cuts are tender and flavorful, and they cook quickly.
  • Make sure the chicken is evenly coated in marinade: To ensure that the chicken is evenly flavored, be sure to coat it thoroughly in the marinade. You can do this by placing the chicken in a large bowl or resealable bag and adding the marinade. Massage the chicken to coat it evenly, then cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
  • Cook the chicken over medium heat: Cooking the chicken over medium heat will help to prevent it from burning and ensure that it cooks evenly throughout.
  • Baste the chicken with the marinade while cooking: Basting the chicken with the marinade while cooking will help to keep it moist and flavorful. Use a pastry brush to baste the chicken every few minutes.
  • Let the chicken rest before serving: Once the chicken is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Honey soy glazed chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The chicken is tender and flavorful, and the glaze is sweet, savory, and sticky. Serve the chicken with rice, noodles, or vegetables for a complete meal.
