Ingredients
  

  • 4 chicken thighs

Marinade

  • ½ lemon juice and zest
  • ¼ cup parsley finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon thyme
  • 1 garlic clove minced
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • pepper

Instructions
 

  • Whisk together all of the marinade ingredients in a bowl
  • Pour the marinade over the chicken and toss to combine. Cover the chicken and marinade in the fridge for 30 minutes or preferably up to 4 + hours or overnight.
  • Bring a pan to high heat with a splash of olive oil, add the chicken to the pan, pouring all of the marinade into the pan too.
  • There will be a bit of excess liquid and it will bubble and boil instead of frying straight away, but keep that heat up high and within a couple of minutes the liquid will evaporate and the honey will start to caramelise and thicken.
  • Continue to cook the chicken for 5 - 10 minutes until it is completed cooked through and is golden brown and sticky in appearance.
  • Once cooked, transfer to a chopping board to cool and rest for 5 minutes then slice up and enjoy however you like!
