Honey Soy Chicken and Rice Bake

I found this recipe and thought I would try it, and BOY was it good!  And my house smelled fabulous while it was cooking!

 

5-6 Bone-in Chicken Thighs

1/3 cup honey

1/3 cup soy sauce (can substitute w/reduced sodium)

1 T rice wine vinegar

1 T toasted sesame oil (optional)

1 T vegetable oil

1/2 cup green onions, sliced (about 4-5 green onions)

1 1/2 T minced ginger 

1 1/2 T minced garlic

1 1/2 cups rice

2 cups chicken stock (can substitute water)

salt to taste

Ground black pepper to taste

 

Put the following into a ziplock bag and marinate for 2 hours - chicken, honey, soy sauce, vinegar, and sesame oil.

 

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

 

Remove chicken from the bag and discard any remaining marinade.

 

Add vegetable oil to a pan over medium heat, and carefully add the chicken thighs, skin side down.  Cook until the thighs are nicely caramelized, about 5 minutes on each side.  Remove the chicken, transfer to a place.  (Be careful not to burn the chicken, as the honey will cause the chicken to brown faster.)

 

To the pan, add the green onions, ginger, and garlic.  Cook until fragrant, about 1-3 minutes.  Add the rice and stir to combine.  Add the chicken broth, season with salt and pepper and bring to a boil.    Put this mixture into a baking dish and add chicken thighs, skin side up.

 

Cover the baking dish, and bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the rice and chicken are both fully cooked.

 

Fluff rice and serve warm.  Garnish with green onion, if desired.

 

Serves 4-6 and prep time is 10 minutes, but total - 2 hours 55 min.

Thanks Roy for the note, and will make a mental note of this.  I don't post many recipes, as I want to be known for selling real estate, not cooking!

Sheri, mine doesn't often, I usually grill, but every once in awhile I actually cook.

Hi Joan... sounds like a great recipe...I'd just have to substitute other chicken parts of thighs (which I don't lie) and eliminate the ginger (which I'm allergic to).

Nina Hollander I only like dark meat chicken, as I think white meat chicken is too dry.   I did not know you had an allergy to ginger.
