Instructions
Preparation Steps
In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, brown sugar, minced garlic, grated ginger, rice vinegar, and sesame oil to create the glaze.
Pat chicken thighs dry with paper towels and season lightly with salt and pepper on both sides.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add a little oil and sear chicken thighs for 4-5 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove chicken and set aside.
Reduce heat to medium. Pour the prepared glaze into the same skillet. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2-3 minutes.
Return chicken to the skillet, spooning glaze over it. Cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until chicken is cooked through and tender.
Remove chicken from skillet. Stir cornstarch slurry into the remaining glaze and cook for 1-2 minutes until slightly thickened.
Pour the thickened glaze over chicken. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds before serving.
Notes
Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles for a complete meal.
