One-Pan Honey Garlic Chicken
Quick and delicious One-Pan Honey Garlic Chicken recipe. Tender chicken, sweet honey garlic sauce, and crisp green beans in one pan!
Ingredients
- 6 chicken thighs bone-in and skin-on
- salt to taste
- pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon butter unsalted
- 3 garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon thyme dried
- 1 teaspoon oregano dried
- 1 pound green beans
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Season the chicken thighs with a bit of salt and pepper.
- In a large, oven-safe skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Place the chicken thighs, skin-side down, in the skillet and sear until golden brown on both sides. The skin side will take longer to get crispy and render the fat properly.
- Once seared, remove the chicken from the skillet and set it aside. Discard any excess fat, but leave a small amount in the pan for flavor.
- Add the minced garlic to the skillet, stirring until it becomes fragrant. Mix in the brown sugar, honey, thyme, and oregano, stirring well to combine. Reduce the heat to low.
- Return the chicken to the skillet, coating it thoroughly with the sauce.
- Add the green beans around the chicken in the skillet.
- Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for about 25 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked through.
- Enjoy your delicious one-pan honey garlic chicken!
