ORANGE Honey Glazed Chicken Thighs Recipe

Chicken thighs are without a doubt the juiciest cut of chicken. Darker in color and with a more pronounced flavor chicken thighs are the perfect ingredient for all kinds of baked grilled or roasted chicken dishes. Our sweet and savory recipe is simple and delicious and these chicken thighs can be on the table in under an hour. Perfect for a weeknight meal this recipe pairs well with all of your favorite side dishes from pasta and rice to salads to roasted vegetables. Plus the thighs make great leftovers that you can repurpose into a flavorful sandwich salad or wrap.

Chicken thighs were historically cheaper than the more desirable and leaner chicken breasts but today the two cuts are comparable in price although the chicken thigh tastes better than any other part of the chicken. We prefer boneless thighs for this recipe but making them bone-in can add more flavor. You can choose to go skinless or not it all depends on your personal taste. Fresh herbs orange juice and a touch of soy sauce make a deliciously tangy sauce that coats the chicken.

1 tablespoon olive oil plus extra for greasing and brushing
