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).

This recipe was easy to follow and the end result was delicious! The chicken was tender and juicy, and the broccoli was cooked perfectly. I will definitely be making this again.

I'm not a big fan of broccoli, but I loved this dish! The chicken was cooked perfectly and the sauce was delicious. I will definitely be making this again, but I'll use a different vegetable next time.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I made it with some grilled chicken I had in the fridge and it turned out great! The sauce is flavorful and the broccoli is a nice addition.

I followed the recipe exactly and the chicken came out dry and overcooked. The broccoli was also mushy. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This dish was a little bland for my taste, but it was still good. I think I would add more garlic and ginger next time. The chicken was cooked well and the broccoli was tender.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a hit! The chicken is always tender and juicy, and the sauce is flavorful and delicious. I usually serve it over rice, but it would also be good with noodles or mashed potatoes.

I made this dish last night and my family loved it! The soy glaze was the perfect balance of sweet and savory, and the chicken was cooked to perfection. The broccoli was also cooked just right, with a nice crunch. I will definitely be making this aga
