Hot Honey Chicken

You say Hot Chicken and thoughts of Nashville "Burn Your Tongue" Hot Chicken come to mind. This recipe is a much milder version. When you begin cooking your chicken, start with a cold pan. This will allow the chicken fat to thoroughly render and coat the chicken.

  • 4 Tbsp.

    fresh lemon juice

  • 2

    garlic cloves , minced

  • 8

    chicken thighs , bone-in, skin on

    • Step 5

  • Coat a oven proof skillet, preferably cast-iron with the olive oil over medium-high heat . Remove the chicken from the marinade and place in the skillet, skin side down.

    • Step 6

  • Cook until skin is golden brown underneath, 8–10 minutes.

    • Step 7
