Instructions
Creating Peach Glazed Chicken Thighs is a straightforward process that yields delicious results. Follow these simple steps for the best outcome:
1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Prepare the Chicken: Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper on both sides.
3. Sear the Chicken: In a large oven-safe skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken thighs skin-side down and sear for about 5-7 minutes until the skin is golden brown. Flip and sear the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes.
4. Make the Glaze: While the chicken is searing, combine diced peaches, honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, and grated ginger in a mixing bowl. Stir well to combine.
5. Glaze the Chicken: Once the chicken is browned, pour the peach glaze over the chicken thighs in the skillet.
6. Bake: Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Bake for about 25-30 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
7. Rest the Chicken: Once cooked, remove the skillet from the oven. Let the chicken rest for about 10 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute.
8. Serve: Drizzle any remaining glaze from the skillet over the chicken before serving.
Following these steps will ensure that your Peach Glazed Chicken Thighs turns out succulent and full of flavor!
