Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs
  • 2 tablespoons Lemongrass & Ginger Infused Olive Oil Blend
  • 1 tablespoon neutral oil
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 medium yellow onion thinly sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger grated
  • 1 red bell pepper sliced
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1/4 cup chicken stock
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 lime cut into wedges
  • 2 cups cooked jasmine rice for serving

Equipment

  • 1 Large skillet 12-inch preferred
  • 1 Chef’s knife For slicing chicken and vegetables
  • 1 Cutting board For prep
  • 1 Tongs For turning chicken
  • 1 set Measuring spoons For sauce and seasoning
  • 1 measuring cup For stock and liquids

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Pat the chicken thighs dry and season both sides with salt and black pepper.
  2. Heat the neutral oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, then sear the chicken for 4 to 5 minutes per side until golden brown and mostly cooked through. Remove to a plate.
  3. Reduce the heat to medium and add the Lemongrass & Ginger Infused Olive Oil Blend, onion, and bell pepper. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes until the vegetables soften.
  4. Stir in the garlic and fresh ginger and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  5. Add the lime juice, soy sauce, honey, and chicken stock, scraping up any browned bits from the pan.
  6. Return the chicken to the skillet and simmer for 4 to 6 minutes, turning once, until the sauce lightly thickens and the chicken is cooked through.
  7. Sprinkle with cilantro and serve hot with jasmine rice and lime wedges.

Notes

For the best sear, avoid crowding the pan. If the skillet looks dry after browning the chicken, add a small splash of water or stock before the aromatics go in. The finished sauce should stay light, glossy, and spoonable.
