Honey Soy Chicken Thighs
Dec 10, 2025 04:17 AM
Looking for the perfect no-fuss dinner? These honey soy chicken thighs are oven-baked, flavour-packed, and require zero pre-browning! With a sweet and savoury marinade that turns into a sticky glaze, you’ll get tender, juicy chicken and bold flavour, with no extra effort needed. Just marinate, bake, and enjoy!
I love this kind of recipe where the oven does most of the work and we are rewarded with tender chicken in a fabulously flavourful sauce.
The marinade for this chicken does double-duty. After it marinates the chicken, it is cooked on the stovetop until thickened and used as a sauce for the chicken as it cooks.
Be sure to set aside time for the chicken to marinate. A couple of hours will work, or you can set it to marinate in the morning to enjoy it later for dinner.
