Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Boneless, skinless chicken thighs
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 large Yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Sriracha sauce
- 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
- 2 cups Cooked long grain white rice
- 2 tablespoons Green onions, sliced (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Season the chicken thighs on both sides with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken thighs and sear for 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the sliced onions and sauté for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly caramelized.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, Sriracha sauce, and rice vinegar to make the glaze.
Return the chicken thighs to the skillet with the onions. Pour the glaze over the chicken and onions, stirring gently to coat evenly.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and allow the chicken to simmer in the glaze for 8-10 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and ensure the glaze thickens slightly.
Serve the Sriracha glazed chicken and onions over a bed of cooked long grain rice. Garnish with sliced green onions, if desired.
Enjoy your Sriracha Glazed Chicken and Onions Over Long Grain Rice!
