Ingredients:

  • 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs

  • 1/4 cup Sriracha

  • 1/4 cup honey

  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce (I prefer low sodium)

  • 1/2 lime, juiced

  • 1/4 ground ginger or a few grates of fresh ginger

  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Place chicken thighs skin-side up on a baking sheet and season with salt and pepper. Bake 15 minutes (top rack is best for crispier skin).

  2. While chicken is baking, mix together the rest of the ingredients in a small sauce pan over medium-high heat. Cook for about 5 minutes until reduced to a thin glaze. A spoon dragged through the sauce should leave a trail in its wake, sort of like this.

  3. Pour sauce over chicken thighs, making sure to cover the skin. Cook for another 15-20 minutes in the oven or until the skin begins to crisp/char. To ensure the thighs are done, make sure the juices run clear when the thighs are cut with a knife.

  4. Remove from oven and sit, loosely covered with foil, for ~5 minutes.

Serve with brown rice and sesame green beans
