Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 chicken thighs
2 teaspoons garlic powder
salt and ground black pepper to taste
6 cloves garlic, crushed
⅓ cup honey
¼ cup water
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon soy sauce

Steps:

  • Season chicken with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  • Heat a pan over medium-high heat. Add chicken and sear until golden, 10 to 12 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the centers should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Drain most of the excess grease from the pan, leaving about 2 tablespoons behind.
  • Arrange chicken thighs skin-side down in the pan. Place crushed garlic between the chicken and fry until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add honey, water, vinegar, and soy sauce. Increase heat to medium-high and cook until sauce reduces down and thickens slightly, 3 to 4 minutes.

HONEY PINEAPPLE CHICKEN

I adapted a dinnertime favorite for my slow cooker because it's so much easier to do the preparation in advance, then let the chicken cook on its own while I do other things. Your family will love the combination of sweet and savory flavors. -Carol Gillespie, Chambersburg, Pennsylvania

Time 50m

Yield 2 to 3 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (about 2 pounds)
2 tablespoons canola oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup pineapple juice
3 cloves garlic, finely minced
3 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons hot sauce
Cooked rice, for serving
Chopped cilantro, for serving, optional

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Arrange the chicken thighs on a baking sheet, evenly spaced, and pat the skin dry with a paper towel. Rub the chicken skin with the oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast until the skin is golden brown and crispy and the meat registers 165 degrees F when an instant-read thermometer is inserted into the thickest part of the meat, 35 to 40 minutes.
  • To make the sauce, whisk together the pineapple juice, garlic, honey and hot sauce in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until reduced by half and slightly thickened, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Drizzle the sauce over the crispy chicken skin and serve warm with cooked rice. Sprinkle with cilantro if using.
