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.

Recipe

General
  • 4 Tbsp.

    fresh lemon juice
  • 2

    garlic cloves , minced
  • 8

    chicken thighs , bone-in, skin on
  • Kosher salt
  • 3 Tbsp.

    olive oil
  • ½ cup

    hot honey
    Step 1
  • In a large bowl, combine the garlic and 4 tablespoons of lemon juice.

  • Step 2
  • Pat the chicken thighs dry and season thoroughly with salt.

  • Step 3
  • Add the chicken to the garlic lemon marinade and combine. Allow the chicken to marinate for at least 30 minutes, preferably 1 hour.

  • Step 4
  • Preheat the oven to 450°.

  • 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
  • Transfer skillet to oven and bake chicken until cooked all the way through, 16–20 minutes. Pull chicken out of the oven and move to a plate.

  • Step 8
  • Using a pastry brush, coat the chicken skin side of each thigh with the hot honey and allow to melt on the chicken.
