Ingredients

• 6 pieces boneless, skinless chicken thighs
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 teaspoon ginger, minced
• 2 teaspoons mild curry powder
• 0.5 teaspoon ground turmeric
• 3 tablespoons honey
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 0.25 cup chicken broth
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
• 2 cups cooked jasmine rice (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Pat the chicken thighs dry with a paper towel and season both sides with salt and black pepper.

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken thighs and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the minced garlic and ginger. Sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 4

Stir in the curry powder and turmeric, allowing the spices to bloom for 30 seconds.

Step 5

Add the honey, soy sauce, lime juice, and chicken broth to the skillet. Stir well to combine and create the glaze.

Step 6

Return the chicken thighs to the skillet, coating them with the glaze. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let the chicken simmer for 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked and the glaze has thickened.

Step 7

Garnish the chicken with chopped cilantro and serve hot over jasmine rice, if desired.
