Ingredients

6 chicken thighs boneless and skinless
Salt and pepper to taste
2 tsp garlic powder
6 cloves garlic crushed
1/3 cup honey
1/4 cup water or chicken broth
2 Tbsp rice wine vinegar or white wine vinegar
1 Tbsp soy sauce

Instructions

Season the chicken thighs with salt, pepper, and the garlic powder.
Heat a couple tablespoons of cooking oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
When the oil is hot, sear the chicken thighs on both sides and continue cooking until done (about 5-6 minutes per side).
Whisk the honey, water, vinegar, and soy sauce together in a small bowl.
When the chicken is cooked through, add the crushed garlic to the pan and cook until the garlic is fragrant (about 30 seconds).
Pour the sauce mixture into the pan and continue cooking until the sauce thickens slightly (about 3-4 minutes).
Garnish with green onions and serve warm over rice or veggies.
