Heather is one of my favorite people.

She is down to earth, talented and sweet.  When she posted this recipe on her site, Home Ec 101, I knew that I had to try it and I’m so glad that I did. It is a massive hit at our house!  Nathan actually ate 3 thighs in one sitting and they are truly tonguegasmically, mouthwateringly delicious! Plus, with chicken thighs going for about $5.00 a package, they are significantly budget friendly! (YAY)

Garlic and Soy Baked Chicken Thighs

Garlic, Soy Sauce, Honey and Fresh Ginger baked Chicken Thighs - quick, easy, delicious and budget friendly!

Ingredients

  • 6 – 8 chicken thighs (bone in or boneless skinless)
  • 1/2 cup low sodium soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/2 Tbsp fresh grated ginger
  • 2 green onions, chopped
  • 5 garlic cloves, minced
  • crushed red pepper (1 tsp. or more, to taste)

Instructions

  1. Whisk together the soy sauce, honey, onion, garlic, ginger and crushed red pepper
  2. Place the chicken thighs and your marinade into a large ziplock baggie and marinate for 2 hours to overnight.
  3. Turn the bag halfway through so that all the thighs get equal drenching time.
  4. Place the thighs skin side up in a baking dish that leaves just a bit of room, but not too much, between each chicken thigh. Pour the marinade over the thighs.
  5. Bake at 350°F for 30 – 40 minutes.
  6. Rachel Note - make sure that if you're using boneless, skinless thighs that you check the temperature at about 20 minutes - you don't want to overcook.
    Optional
  7. Garnish with more chopped green onions, we do.
