Honey Lemon Chicken Thighs Recipes

HONEY-LEMON CHICKEN THIGHS

Steps:

• Grate 1 tsp of zest from the lemon, and press 1 tbs of juice.
• Combine the zest and juice with stock, honey, and soy sauce.
• Heat oil in a large wok with a cover and brown the thighs.
• Remove the thighs from oil and add the onion; saute until soft.
• Add the rice, pepper, and broth mixture; top with the browned thighs.
• Cover and simmer for 30 minutes or until the liquid is absorbed.

GRILLED HONEY-LEMON CHICKEN

Steps:

• Mix canola oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, honey, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, Italian herb seasoning, salt, and black pepper in a bowl; pour into a resealable plastic bag. Place chicken breasts into the bag, seal, and squeeze bag with your fingers several times to coat chicken with marinade. Place a second resealable bag over the first and seal to prevent leaks. Refrigerate chicken for 2 to 4 hours.
• Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Remove chicken breasts from bag; discard used marinade. Cook chicken on the preheated grill until the center is no longer pink and the juices run clear, 7 to 8 minutes per side.

SUCCULENT HONEY & LEMON CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200C/Gas 6/fan180C. Squeeze the juice from 2 lemons into a small pan and heat with the butter, honey, rosemary, garlic and salt and pepper, until the butter melts and it smells fragrant.
• Lay the chicken in a roasting tin - don't pile it up or it won't cook so well. Add the potatoes and drizzle with lemon butter to coat evenly. Cut the third lemon into 8 wedges and tuck them in. (Can be made up to 2 hours ahead up to this point.)
• Roast for 50 minutes - 1 hour until the chicken is cooked and the potatoes are crisp and golden. Serve with a green salad.
