    This tasty chicken honey soy sauce recipe is so simple. A marinade of honey, soy sauce, green onions and garlic give this dish to new levels. Easy dinner meal for the family!

    chicken honey soy sauce recipe

    The chicken thigh is a very underrated meat.  It’s possibly my favorite part of the chicken, though it is often overshadowed by the breast these days.  I love the flavor of the thigh, and pairing it with a few of folks’ favorite ingredients makes this one of my most popular chicken dishes.  Garlic, soy sauce and honey are all solid components of a marinade, and combined with a bit of turmeric and coriander really ups this dish to new levels. It is so simple, yet just might please you and your family or guests to become a regular in  your meal rotation.  It did for me!  The sweetness is just right, and balances well with the soy sauce.  I’m a garlic fan through and through and love the hints of it in the taste of this dish.  Enjoy!

        Hi Christine,

        I purchased the plate from Target. You can go online and type in your zip code. I believe it's an older stock, limited quantity.
