Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a large bowl, combine honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, olive oil, black pepper, and salt. Mix well to create a marinade.

  2. 2

    Add Chicken to Marinade

    Place the chicken thighs into the marinade, ensuring they are well coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for better flavor.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. 4

    Bake the Chicken

    Transfer the marinated chicken thighs to a baking dish. Pour the remaining marinade over the chicken. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and has an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).

  3. 5

    Garnish

    Once the chicken is baked, remove it from the oven. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top and garnish with chopped green onions.
