Ingredients
  

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 5 tablespoons honey
  • 4 cloves garlic minced (or 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
  • 3 pounds chicken thighs bone-in and skin-on
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to a toasty 425°F.
  • Combine olive oil, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, ground ginger, and fresh ground pepper in a large Ziploc bag. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Add the chicken thighs and give them a good toss to coat evenly. Let the chicken marinate in the fridge for at least 30 minutes, or up to 24 hours if you've got the time.

  • Place the marinated chicken thighs skin-side up in a baking dish, letting the marinade join the party. Bake in your preheated oven for 25 minutes, then flip the chicken to skin-side down and bake for another 10 minutes. Flip once more to skin-side up and bake for a final 10 minutes to get that skin irresistibly crispy. The chicken is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
