SRIRACHA-SOY CHICKEN THIGH MARINADE
This is a super easy marinade I use on boneless, skinless chicken thighs. If you leave them whole, grill them. If you don't have a grill, you can stir-fry them with vegetables, like celery and onion.

HONEY AND SOY-GLAZED CHICKEN THIGHS WITH MARINATED CUCUMBERS
Steps:
- 1. Place the chicken in a large re-sealable plastic bag. Add 2 tablespoons soy sauce and 1 tablespoon oil. Seal and turn bag to coat chicken evenly. Marinate 15 minutes at room temperature, or in the refrigerator for up to 12 hours.
- 2. Peel the cucumbers and halve lengthwise. Use a small spoon to scoop out the seeds and discard. Thinly slice and toss in a strainer with 1 teaspoon salt. Let sit 10 minutes in the sink to drain. Rinse, drain well and pat dry on paper towels. Toss in a bowl with the vinegars and chives. Set aside.
- 3. Position the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Combine the remaining 2 tablespoons soy sauce, remaining 1 tablespoon oil, honey, lemon juice, and thyme in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat, stirring to blend. Remove from the heat and cool slightly.
- 4. Line the bottom of a broiling pan with foil and brush top pan with oil. Arrange the chicken on the pan, skin-side up. Bake the chicken, brushing often with the honey-soy mixture, until a meat thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the thigh, registers 160 degrees F, about 25 minutes. Put the oven on the broil setting and liberally brush each thigh with more of the honey-soy mixture. Broil until nicely browned, watching carefully to avoid burning. Season with pepper. Serve chicken with the cucumber salad.

Tips:
- Choose the right chicken thighs: Look for bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs for the best flavor and texture.
- Make sure to marinate the chicken for at least 30 minutes, but longer is better. This will allow the flavors to penetrate the chicken and make it more tender.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the chicken. This will prevent the chicken from cooking evenly.
- Cook the chicken over medium heat until the skin is golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Soy-marinated chicken thighs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The marinade infuses the chicken with flavor, while the cooking method results in tender, juicy chicken that is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
