Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken thighs
- 0.25 cup honey
- 1 tablespoon curry powder
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)
Instructions
In a small bowl, whisk together honey, curry powder, soy sauce, olive oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Place the chicken thighs in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag.
Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring all pieces are well-coated. Let it marinate for at least 10 minutes. For best results, marinate in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add a drizzle of olive oil if needed to prevent sticking.
Place the marinated chicken thighs in the skillet and cook for 6–7 minutes on one side, allowing them to brown.
Flip the chicken thighs and cook for another 6–7 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
Reduce the heat to low, pour any leftover marinade into the skillet, and let it simmer for 2–3 minutes, thickening into a sauce.
Remove the skillet from heat and let it rest for a couple of minutes.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired, and serve with steamed rice or your favorite side dish.
