Glazed Honey Soy Chicken Thighs Recipe

Glazed Honey Soy Chicken Thighs Recipe : The majority of people enjoy the flavor of juicy thigh flesh, but they might not know how to bake it in the oven. Even while roasting or baking thighs is as simple, searing them in a skillet is typically the simplest and most preferred method.

As they bake, the flavorful natural pan juices from the chicken thighs melt into the sauce. A few minutes of preparation work are all it takes to obtain juicy, succulent baked chicken thighs.

Should I use chicken thighs with skin on or without bones? For this dish, I use boneless, skinless chicken thighs since they produce the best results.

If you happen to have bone-in skin-on thighs on hand, though, by all means use them. They take approximately ten minutes longer to cook, but they work just as well with this recipe. Watch out for them.
