Instructions

Preheat the oven to 425°F.

Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Spray liberally with nonstick cooking spray.

Crush and finely mince the garlic.

Combine the garlic, honey, and soy sauce in a medium mixing bowl. Whisk until well mixed.

Add the chicken thighs to the bowl and toss to coat in the honey-soy mixture. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet.

Pour any remaining honey-soy mixture over the tops of the chicken thighs.

Bake on middle rack of oven until the thickest part of the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F, about 20 minutes.

Check to see that chicken is done. Remove from oven or add time as needed.

Allow the chicken thighs to rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Garlic Infusion Technique 🧄
Mince garlic super fine or use a microplane to release maximum flavor, ensuring it distributes evenly in the honey-soy sauce marinade.
Marinade Magic ✨
For deeper flavor, let chicken thighs marinate for 15-30 minutes before cooking, even if the recipe doesn't explicitly call for it.
Nonstick Spray Pro Tip 🥢
Spray cooking surface lightly and evenly to prevent chicken from sticking while allowing beautiful caramelization of the honey-soy glaze.
Thigh Thickness Hack 🔪
Pound chicken thighs to an even 1/2-inch thickness to ensure uniform cooking and maximum flavor absorption.
Glaze Concentration Trick 💧
If sauce is too thin, reduce it in the pan after cooking chicken to create a more intense, sticky coating.
