Ingredients

1 lb skin-on bone-in chicken thighs

Marinade

4 tablespoon hoisin sauce (not oyster sauce!)
3 cloves garlic minced
2 green onions finely chopped
1 tablespoon regular soy sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
¼ teaspoon black pepper or white pepper

Instructions

In a small bowl, combine Marinade ingredients (as listed) together. Pour it into a resealable container or ZipLock bag.
Add chicken thighs into the marinade. Marinate for at least 1 hour or overnight, for best flavor.
Preheat the oven to 355 degrees F. Transfer chicken thighs only onto a baking sheet or baking dish lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Reserve the marinade as your basting sauce.
Bake for a total for 35 minutes basting the chicken with the marinade every 10 minutes. Cooked chicken has an internal temperature of 165 F with a digital thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh or until juices run clear.
Remove chicken from the oven and let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before enjoying.
Then transfer any residual marinade into a small saucepan set on your stove top. Bring it to simmer on medium heat. Once it simmers, remove off heat. Serve sauce as a reserved glaze over chicken thighs. Enjoy!
