→ Main Ingredients
01 -
500g boneless, skinless chicken thighs
02 -
200g long-grain white rice
03 -
80ml honey
04 -
120ml BBQ sauce
05 -
15ml soy sauce
06 -
2 cloves garlic, freshly minced
# Instructions:
01 -
Preheat your oven to 190°C (375°F) to ensure the chicken cooks evenly and the sauce achieves proper caramelization.
02 -
In a large bowl, combine honey, BBQ sauce, soy sauce, and minced garlic. Mix until smooth and glossy.
03 -
Lightly grease a baking dish with oil or cooking spray to prevent sticking and simplify cleanup.
04 -
Toss chicken thighs in half the prepared sauce, then arrange them in the baking dish. Spread the remaining sauce over the top, ensuring even coverage.
05 -
Bake the chicken in the oven for 35-40 minutes, basting once halfway through the cooking time. The chicken is done when it is juicy and the sauce is bubbling and sticky.
06 -
Remove the chicken from the oven and allow it to rest for 5 minutes to let the flavors settle and to prevent burns when served.
07 -
Serve the chicken over cooked rice, drizzling any remaining sauce from the baking dish over the top.
