Ingredients
Scale
4 large chicken thighs, skin-on and bone-in
1/2 cup sweet chili sauce
2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes. Whisk until well blended.
Place the chicken thighs in a large resealable bag or shallow dish, pour the marinade over them, and seal. Ensure the thighs are well coated. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing any excess liquid to drip off. Place the thighs skin-side up on a foil-lined baking sheet.
Bake the chicken thighs for about 25-30 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Broil for an extra charred effect if desired.
Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes, then garnish with chopped green onions and toasted sesame seeds.
