INGREDIENTS

For the Chicken

  • 1 kg chicken thighs, bone-in or boneless and skin-on

For the Marinade

  • 50ml soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon Hoisin sauce
  • 1 teaspoon grated ginger
  • 1 clove garlic, mashed
  • 1 teaspoon chili flakes
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar

For Serving

  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds

METHOD

  1. In a bowl, mix all the marinade ingredients until well combined. Add the chicken thighs and toss to coat them completely.
  2. Cover and let it marinate in the fridge for 2–3 hours. Place the chicken on a baking tray or grill rack and bake in a preheated oven at 190°C (375°F) or on a grill until cooked through and tender.
  3. During baking, brush the chicken with the remaining marinade to create a sticky glaze. Sprinkle with sesame seeds before serving.
