Ingredients

3 servings

1 lb (500g) chicken thighs (deboned, skin-on)
3 cloves garlic (minced)
2 tablespoons honey
1.5 tablespoon soy sauce
2 tablespoons lime juice
3 dashes cayenne pepper
1 big pinch salt
parsley (chopped)
lime wedges

Steps

Preheat the oven to 400°F (207°C). Rub the minced garlic on the chicken thighs with your hands. Add honey, soy sauce, lime juice, cayenne pepper, and salt to the chicken. Stir to combine well. Transfer the chicken and the honey mixture to a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil. Cover the chicken with aluminum foil to prevent burning.Pro tip: Double the marinade if you want it to be more “saucy.”
Bake the chicken for 20 minutes, or until cooked. If the sauce pools at the bottom of the foil, spoon and brush the sauce over the chicken. Broil the chicken for 1 minute or until the chicken skin is charred. Remove from heat, garnish with parsley. Squeeze the lime wedges over the chicken before serving.
