  • 2 pounds chicken thighs
  • 1/4 cup hot honey
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a bowl, mix together the hot honey, olive oil, soy sauce, minced garlic, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
  3. Place the chicken thighs in a baking dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring they are well-coated.
  4. Let the chicken marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.
