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.
