20-Minute Honey Lemon Glazed Chicken

Chicken

  • 4 boneless chicken thighs, skin on (skinless works too)
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp vegetarian oyster sauce
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch

Lemon Glaze

  • 1-2 tbsp lemon zest (about 1 lemon)
  • ¼ cup fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 1 tsp cornstarch

Directions

  • Marinate the chicken: Add chicken thighs to a bowl with soy sauce, vegetarian oyster sauce, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and cornstarch. Mix until evenly coated.
  • Make the lemon glaze: In a small bowl, mix lemon zest, lemon juice, honey, salt, and cornstarch. Set aside.
  • Pan-fry: Heat oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Pan-fry chicken for 5 minutes per side until golden and cooked through. Remove and set aside.
  • Glaze: Pour the lemon sauce into the pan and simmer for 30 seconds until glossy.
  • Finish: Add chicken back in and cook on medium-high heat for 2–3 minutes, tossing to coat.
  • Serve: Serve chicken thighs whole or cut into bite-sized slices over rice.
