Featuring: Acacia Honey 460 GM

   

Ingredients
  • 4 chicken thighs (skin-on, bone-in)
  • 3 tablespoons Acacia Honey 460 GM
  • Juice and zest of 1 lemon
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • A few sprigs of fresh thyme

Instructions

  1. Preheat & Season: Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Season the chicken with salt and pepper on both sides.
  2. Prepare the Glaze: In a small bowl, mix Acacia Honey, lemon juice and zest, minced garlic, and olive oil.
  3. Sear: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for about 2 minutes per side until lightly browned.
  4. Bake: Transfer the chicken to an oven-safe dish, brush generously with the honey glaze, and tuck in the thyme sprigs. Roast for 25–30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.
  5. Finish: Optionally, brush with extra glaze during the last 5 minutes for a stickier finish.
