Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 pieces Chicken thighs, bone-in and skin-on
- 0.5 cup Soy sauce
- 0.5 cup Honey
- 0.25 cup Ketchup
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
- 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 stalks Green onions, chopped (for garnish)
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, ketchup, brown sugar, minced garlic, grated ginger, vegetable oil, and black pepper until well combined.
Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels and place them in an oven-safe baking dish in a single layer.
Pour the prepared sticky sauce over the chicken, ensuring each piece is coated thoroughly.
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes.
After 25 minutes, remove the foil, baste the chicken with the sauce from the dish, and return it to the oven uncovered for an additional 20 minutes.
Increase the oven temperature to 425°F (220°C) for the final 5 minutes of cooking to help caramelize the sauce and create a sticky glaze.
Remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.
Serve hot with steamed rice or your favorite side dish.
