Soy Hoisin Chicken Thighs. Savoury, tender, juicy chicken baked in a soy, hoisin, scallion sauce. Easy to make and perfect for dinner.
This is one of my favourite soy chicken recipes to share with you. I love it because it's so simple and easy to make.
These soy and hoisin chicken thighs only take 35 minutes in the oven and 5 minutes to prepare. However, I would highly recommend marinating this overnight for best flavour.
My sticky soy hoisin chicken thighs recipe pairs deliciously with plain white rice and leafy greens. This type of meal is a staple a Chinese cuisine, we sure love our chicken and rice meal.
When I was young, I remember my mother making a version of her own chicken thighs and soy sauce and it was so delicious. Sometimes, she would substitute it with chicken wings. It was definitely a family favourite.
I also share a few more other soy chicken recipes below so please check them out!

Very delicious! I love chicken and rice and this really satisfied me. I added some honey to it as well and it made it even more yummier
This is my kind of meal Christie! Love the ease of marinating it overnight. This one will be a hit at my house!
These chicken thighs look so tasty and well garnished. Thanks for sharing this recipe. 🙂
These chicken thighs look so good!
I think I am going to make this one just for the name!! Hehe Soy hoisin !
Looks so succulent and mouth-watering! I love it's so easy. Pinning! xo
Looks so savoury and delicious! Classic Chinese flavours 🙂 Yum!
Thanks Michelle!
I made this recipe over the weekend and it turned out great. I marinated the chicken thighs for almost 24 hrs (actually forgot abt it in the fridge 😅), and it came out super flavorful. I definitely gonna make this again.
Your homemade sauce is spot on... and using chicken thighs in this recipe really adds so much flavor, yum!
Delectable! I couldn't get this out of the oven and onto our table fast enough. The house smelled insanely good as these babies baked. I used boneless skinless thighs as that's all I could find and only marinated for an hour as I was short on time, and it was still phenomenal. Best Asian-style chicken I've had in a long time. Will definitely make it again.
Delicious!!! Made the house smell soooo good while they were in the oven. I've been trying to find an Asian chicken dish that is better than take out and nothing has worked until this recipe. Thanks so much! 🙂
Thank you so much for making my recipe! I am so glad to hear you enjoyed it 🙂
Do I use fresh minced garlic or garlic powder? Making it now.
Hi there, sorry for the delayed reply! Yes, please use fresh minced garlic.
Hi Christie. Thanks for the recipe. These tasted great! However mine did not look like your picture. The skin is not browned at all, especially with the basting. I'm wondering if the temp should be higher than the 355 deg in the recipe? Or did you broil it in the end? I will be trying your other recipes soon. Thanks again!
Hi Ming, thanks for making my recipe and glad you enjoyed it! It could be your air fryer. Air Fryers of different brands can range in heat setting and are manufactured differently in how close the heat element is to your basket. For next time, I would suggest air frying for a couple more minutes until it's browned or increasing your temperature.
