Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless chicken thighs (skin on)
- 1.5 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp mushroom stir-fry sauce
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- Black pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup cornstarch (for coating)
- 1/4 cup oil (for pan frying)
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 bulb garlic (finely minced)
- 1 tbsp honey
- Dried parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare chicken thighs by removing bones while keeping the skin intact. Rinse under cold water and pat dry.
- Score the meat side of each thigh lightly and marinate in a mixture of soy sauce, mushroom stir-fry sauce, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper for at least 15 minutes.
- Coat each thigh evenly with cornstarch, shaking off excess.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over low-medium heat. Fry chicken thighs skin-side down for about 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through (165°F internal temperature).
- Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, melt butter and sauté minced garlic until fragrant. Stir in honey and additional soy sauce; simmer until slightly thickened.
- Return chicken to the skillet, coating each piece in the glaze for another minute.
- Garnish with dried parsley if desired before serving.
