Enjoy tender, juicy chicken thighs glazed with a sweet and savory honey soy marinade, topped with fresh herbs and citrus for a flavorful meal.

4 pieces Chicken thighs (bone-in, skin-on) (Key to juicy, flavorful meat with crispy skin.)
0.25 cup Honey (Adds sweetness that caramelizes into a sticky glaze.)
0.25 cup Soy sauce (Provides savory depth and umami richness.)
3 cloves Garlic (minced) (Boosts flavor with aromatic warmth.)
1 tablespoon Fresh ginger (grated) (Adds a zesty, slightly spicy note that balances sweetness.)
1 tablespoon Sesame oil (A small splash enhances the nutty aroma in the marinade.)
2 pieces Spring onions (sliced) (For a fresh, mild crunch and vibrant color.)
1 tablespoon Sesame seeds (toasted) (For a subtle crunch and nutty finish.)
2 pieces Lime wedges (Brightens the dish with a hint of citrus when squeezed on top.)

Mix honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, and sesame oil to create the marinade.
Marinate the chicken thighs in the mixture for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Roast the chicken thighs for 35 minutes until cooked through and skin is crispy.
Garnish with sliced spring onions and toasted sesame seeds. Serve with lime wedges for squeezing.

For extra flavor, broil the chicken for the last 2 minutes to enhance crispiness.
