Chicken Thigh Marinade
Serves 8
Equipment
- Large mixing bowl or
- Ziploc Bag
- Baking Dish
Ingredients
- 8 Chicken thighs skin on
- 2 tbsp Olive Oil
- 1 tbsp Sesame Oil
- 4 tbsp Soy Sauce Low Salt
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire Sauce
- 2 tbsp Lemon Juice or lime juice
- 5 tbsp Honey or maple syrup
- 6 cloves Garlic minsed
- 1/2 tsp Pepper freshly ground
- 2 tsp Salt plus more to taste
Instructions
- Mix all ingredients for the marinade together in a large bowl or a plastic Ziploc bag.
- Add the chicken and make sure that every piece is covered evenly. Marinate in a fridge for at least30 minutes to 2 hours or, better yet, overnight. •
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
- Place the chicken and all of the marinade in a baking dish.
- Bake uncovered at 450 degrees F for 25-30 minutes with the skin side up, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
- To make sure the chicken tops are nicely browned and do not dry out, baste the chicken thighs in the juices and marinade about 15-20 minutes into baking.
- To get a nicely browned, crisped up skin, turn on the griller for 2-3 minutes when the thighs are almost done cooking. Monitor grilling very closely as the tops may burn if grilled for too long.
