Asian Glazed Chicken Thighs
If you want something easy to make for dinner tonight, watch these tasty Asian Glazed Chicken Thighs. The glaze is sweet, savory, and full of flavor.
I used boneless chicken thighs that are very flavorful and bake up juicy inside. You can certainly switch up with different cuts of chicken but make sure you adjust your baking times.
This week I am trying to get everything done and organized before the weekend comes. We are planning on taking the girls on a surprise trip to Universal Studios in Florida, my oldest is obsessed with Harry Potter so I can’t wait to see her face when she embarks on the Hogwarts Express. I’ve heard it’s an amazing place.
Meanwhile, I am praying that my youngest gets well from her nasty cold before Friday comes. She’s been battling a cold since Saturday night accompanied by fever and coughs.
Back to my Asian Glazed Chicken Thighs, the prep is easy, simply bake and bake at the end. No biggie! You can marinate them in advance if you have the time or if not, you can skip this step. I sometimes forget to thaw them the day before and the results are still great.
You can also prep the day or morning before and bake at the last minute. They only require 30 minutes in the oven so if you’re entertaining, you can enjoy the party without the need to babysit your chicken.
The sauce has rice vinegar, honey, soy sauce, sesame oil, and sriracha.
I hope you can try this yummy Asian Glazed Chicken Thighs at home. Please come back and let me know how they came out.
