I removed the skin from the chicken thighs before cooking.  Just personal preference.  The method is the same whether you are using skin-on or skinless.  I served it over steamed white rice.  The sauce was delicious drizzled over that rice.

Garlic Honey Chicken Thighs

Skinless, bone in chicken thighs, cooked in a garlic and honey sauce that reduces to a wonderful, sticky glaze.

Prep time: 3 MinCook time: 25 MinTotal time: 28 Min

Ingredients

• 4 chicken thighs, I used bone-in, skinless
• salt and pepper, to taste
• 2 t. olive oil
• 1/2 sweet onion, diced
• 5 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/2 c. honey
• 1/4 c. soy sauce

Instructions

1. Season the top of the chicken with salt and pepper. Heat the olive oil in a skillet set over medium-high heat. Add the chicken, seasoned side down, and season the bottom of the chicken.
2. Cook for about 3 minutes, until top side is browned. (you may want to cook for a minute or two longer for skin-on thighs).
3. Flip the chicken over, and add the onion and garlic to the pan. Cook for another 3 or 4 minutes, until the onions and garlic are softened and fragrant, stirring occasionally.
4. Whisk together the honey and soy sauce. Add to the pan, and stir, scraping up any browned bits stuck to the bottom of the pan.
5. Cover the pan, reduce heat to medium, and cook another few minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165* and the sauce has reduced to a syrupy glaze.
