This dish is very easy to prepare as it uses only a few simple ingredients that are probably already available in your kitchen.

Ingredients:

Chicken

• 2 pounds of boneless skinless chicken thighs
• 2 tsp of seasoned salt (or just salt)
• 1 tsp of garlic powder
• ½ tsp of onion powder
• ½ tsp of salt-free lemon pepper

Glaze

• 3 tbsp of unsalted butter
• 2 tbsp of soy sauce
• ½ cup of honey

Directions:

Step 1

Score the exterior of the chicken thighs, especially the thicker parts, then sprinkle them with a mixture of seasoned salt or plain salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt-free lemon pepper, and rub them in until each chicken is well seasoned. Flip the chicken over, then season the other side as well. Place a pan on a stove and preheat over a medium-high heat setting, then add some oil, and place the chicken thighs. Fry them for about 3 to 5 minutes, then flip, and cook the other side for 3 to 5 minutes as well. Cover the pan and lower the heat, then let it cook through for about 5 to 6 minutes.

Step 2

Once done cooking, remove the chicken thighs leaving only the oil, then add and melt the butter while scraping the bottom of the pan. Add the soy sauce and honey, then increase the heat for a little bit, and mix them together until well combined and uniform. Once the sauce is frothy and has a thick consistency, put the chicken back into the pan, then cook them for about 3 to 5 minutes while basting them with the sauce from time to time. Turn off the heat and continue basting for a few more seconds while still bubbling. The sauce will thicken and reduce as it cools down, serve, and enjoy!
