Equipment

  • 9x13 Baking Pan

Ingredients

  • 6 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp ground paprika
  • ½ tsp kosher salt
  • ½ tsp ground black pepper
  • ¼ cup honey or agave nectar
  • 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes optional

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • In a medium sized bowl, mix together the flour and paprika.
    ¼ cup all-purpose flour, 1 tsp ground paprika
  • Coat each chicken thigh in the flour mixture and place in a greased or foil lined dish.
    6 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • Sprinkle each thigh with salt and pepper.
    ½ tsp kosher salt, ½ tsp ground black pepper
  • In a separate bowl, mix the honey, soy sauce, and garlic.
    ¼ cup honey, 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce, 4 cloves garlic
  • Pour evenly over the chicken. You may need to flip them over once or twice to make sure they're coated completely in the sauce. Sprinkle with the red pepper flakes to taste (if you don't like spicy, you can leave this off).
    1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
  • Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
  • Uncover and continue baking for another 15 minutes.
  • Serve with rice or vegetables, with extra sauce on the side if desired.
