Asian Glazed Chicken Thighs

Sweet and Savory Asian-Style Chicken Thighs

Ingredients:

6 boneless, skinless chicken thighs

1/3 cup low-sodium soy sauce

1/3 cup honey

1/4 cup rice vinegar

1 teaspoon sesame oil

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger

1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes

1/2 teaspoon cornstarch

1/2 teaspoon water

1 tablespoon sesame seeds (for garnish)

2 green onions, thinly sliced (for garnish)

Directions:

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

In a small saucepan, combine soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, and red pepper flakes. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat.

Mix cornstarch and water in a small bowl to create a slurry, then stir it into the sauce. Simmer for 1-2 minutes until thickened. Remove from heat.

Arrange the chicken thighs in a baking dish and pour the glaze over them, making sure they are evenly coated.

Bake the chicken for 25-30 minutes, basting with the glaze every 10 minutes, until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions before serving.
