KILLER CHICKEN THIGH MARINADE

Ingredients

• 8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (about 4 lbs)
• 2 Tbsp olive oil
• 1 Tbsp sesame oil
• 4 Tbsp low sodium soy sauce
• 1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
• 2 Tbsp lemon juice (or lime juice)
• 5 Tbsp honey (or maple syrup)
• 6 cloves garlic (minced)
• ½ tsp black pepper (freshly ground)
• 2 tsp kosher salt (plus more to taste)

Instructions

1. Mix all ingredients for the marinade together in a large bowl or a plastic Ziploc bag. Add the chicken and make sure that every piece is covered evenly. Marinate in a fridge for at least 30 minutes to 2 hours or, better yet, overnight.
2. Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
3. Place the chicken and all of the marinade in a baking dish. Bake uncovered at 450 degrees F for 25-30 minutes with the skin side up, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. To make sure the chicken tops are nicely browned and do not dry out, baste the chicken thighs in the juices and marinade about 15-20 minutes into baking.
4. To get a nicely browned, crisped up skin, turn on the broiler for 2-3 minutes when the thighs are almost done cooking. Monitor broiling very closely as the tops may burn if broiled for too long.
