About this saved recipe
Ingredients
- 4 chicken thighs
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp oyster sauce
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 8 cloves garlic
- 2 Thai red chilies
- 2 tbsp fish sauce
- 4 tbsp lime juice
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1 tbsp water
- 4 stalks cilantro
Instructions
- 1Marinate the chicken: In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, honey, and black pepper. Add the 4 chicken thighs, turning to coat evenly. Cover and let sit at room temperature for 15–20 minutes.
- 2Prepare the sauce: While the chicken marinates, combine the minced garlic, finely chopped Thai red chilies, fish sauce, water, sugar, and lime juice in a small bowl. Stir until the sugar dissolves, then fold in the chopped cilantro. Set the sauce aside.
- 3Cook the chicken: Heat a drizzle of oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken thighs and pan‑fry for 6–7 minutes on each side, or until the exterior is golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (165°F). Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and let rest for 2–3 minutes before slicing into strips.
- 4Assemble the bowls: Divide cooked rice among four serving bowls. Top each with sliced chicken, then generously drizzle the prepared Thai lime‑chili sauce over the top. Garnish with extra chopped cilantro and lime wedges if desired.
