Flavorful Soy Hoisin Chicken Thighs (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
→ Main
01 -
1 pound of bone-in chicken thighs with the skin still on
→ Marinade
02 -
4 tablespoons of hoisin sauce
03 -
3 minced garlic cloves
04 -
2 green onions, chopped nice and small
05 -
1 tablespoon of soy sauce (regular kind)
06 -
1 tablespoon of sesame oil
07 -
A quarter teaspoon of either black pepper or white pepper
# Instructions:
01 -
Mix all the marinade stuff in a small bowl. Then, pour it into a ZipLock bag or a resealable container.
02 -
Put the chicken thighs into your marinade. Marinade them for at least an hour, but letting them sit overnight is even better.
03 -
Heat your oven to 355°F. Lay the chicken thighs on a baking pan or dish with parchment paper or foil. Save the marinade for later basting.
04 -
Bake for 35 minutes in total. Every 10 minutes, brush the chicken with the marinade. It’s done when the chicken hits 165°F in the thickest part or the juices aren’t pink anymore.
05 -
Give the chicken a 5-minute break. Heat up whatever marinade is left in a small pot over medium heat till it simmers. Take it off the heat and serve it as a glaze over the chicken.
# Notes:
01 -
This meal is perfect for a busy night. The chicken is coated with a sweet and salty glaze that bakes into tender goodness.
02 -
Don’t use oyster sauce in this—it’s got to be hoisin!
