Description

A mouthwatering dish featuring juicy chicken thighs coated in a rich garlic butter sauce, balanced with soy sauce and honey for a delightful taste experience.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 chicken thighs, bone-in and skin-on
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp honey or brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp chili flakes
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh parsley or green onions, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
  2. Sauté the minced garlic for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  3. Add soy sauce, honey (or brown sugar), olive oil, paprika, chili flakes, and season with salt and pepper.
  4. Coat the chicken thighs in the skillet, ensuring they are well-covered with the sauce.
