Ingredients
Scale
8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs

1/4 cup soy sauce
3 tablespoons honey
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
2 tablespoons rice vinegar

Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Whisk until well blended. Add chicken thighs to the marinade and coat well. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
