Ingredients
- 6 chicken thighs bone in or out, with or without skin*
- salt and pepper to season
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
Sauce:
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic
- 1/3 cup honey
- 1/4 cup water
- 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon minced ginger optional
Rice:
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 yellow onion diced
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme optional
- 1 cup white rice uncooked (I used basmati)
- Kosher salt and pepper to taste
- 2 cups chicken broth
Garnish:
- lemon slices
- fresh parsley chopped
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Chicken:
- Season the chicken on each side with some Kosher salt and black pepper.
- Heat the cast iron skillet on high heat; add the canola oil once hot.
- When the oil starts to simmer slightly, add the chicken (skin side down if you are using the skin-on chicken thighs) and cook until browned, 4-5 minutes on each side.
- Transfer the chicken to a plate and cover well with foil.
Sauce:
- Add the garlic to the cast iron skillet and cook for 1 minute, just until fragrant.
- Add the honey, water, vinegar, ginger, if using, and soy sauce. Cook on medium heat until the sauce reduces and thickens slightly (about 5-8 minutes). Stir occasionally.
- If you want the sauce thicker, cook on low for longer, stirring occasionally.
- Transfer the sauce to a bowl. Set aside.
Rice:
- Add butter to the hot cast iron skillet and melt on low-medium heat.
- Add the diced onion and cook for about 1 minute until soft.
- Add the uncooked rice and dried thyme, stir, and cook for a minute.
- Pour in the chicken broth and stir to combine.
- Add the meat to the pan on top of the rice, skin side up if using bone-in thighs.
- Cover with foil and bake for 45-50 minutes. When 5 minutes are left, uncover the pan, brush the chicken with the sauce, and broil for 5 minutes.
- Serve with lemon slices, fresh parsley, and extra sauce on the chicken.
