Instructions
- In a large baking dish or zip-lock bag, mix first 6 ingredients; soy sauce through chili garlic sauce. Turn to coat both sides.
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
- Allow to meat to marinate 30 minutes at room temperature, or overnight in fridge.
- Place chicken on a baking rack over rimmed baking sheet sprayed with vegetable or olive oil. Bake chicken for 15 minutes. Reserve marinade.
- Combine reserved marinade with corn starch and heat over medium heat stirring occasionally, until mixture comes to a boil, about 3 minutes, or until mixture thickens.
- Remove chicken from oven and baste again with marinade. Bake an additional 15 minutes, or until chicken is done and has reached an internal temperature of 165 degrees.
- Toss or brush chicken with any remaining cooked marinade.
Notes
- For weekly meal prep, prepare marinade and seal chicken in zip lock freezer bag and freeze for up to 2 months. Defrost chicken in the refrigerator for 24 hours before cooking.
- Because the marinade is used on raw chicken, it's important to bring the marinade to a boil and cook for about 3 minutes before brushing it on cooked chicken.
- Tamari may be substituted for soy sauce.
- Chicken drum sticks can be substituted in place of thighs. They won't need as long to cook.
- Use skin on thighs over skinless chicken thighs for best results.
- Hoisin sauce and chili garlic sauce can be found in the Asian aisle of most supermarkets.
