Lower Fat Honey Lemon Chicken Thighs Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Place 3 tablespoons butter in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in a microwave oven until melted, 1 to 2 minutes. Smash garlic cloves with the side of a chef's knife and add garlic to the warm butter. Stir in lemon juice and onion powder. Set aside.
• Sprinkle both sides of chicken thighs with salt and pepper. Heat remaining 1 tablespoon butter in a medium-sized oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat. Brown chicken, skin-side down, for 3 to 4 minutes. Flip chicken over and brush skin with lemon-butter mixture. Pour remaining butter mixture into skillet and remove from heat.
• Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Brush skin every 10 minutes with pan juices.
• Remove skillet from the oven and place chicken on a serving platter. Drizzle chicken with pan juices and garnish with parsley.

Steps:

• Grate 1 tsp of zest from the lemon, and press 1 tbs of juice.
• Combine the zest and juice with stock, honey, and soy sauce.
• Heat oil in a large wok with a cover and brown the thighs.
• Remove the thighs from oil and add the onion; saute until soft.
• Add the rice, pepper, and broth mixture; top with the browned thighs.
• Cover and simmer for 30 minutes or until the liquid is absorbed.

Steps:

• Combine first 4 ingredients; add chicken.
• Preheat oven to 425.
• Remove chicked from marinade; reserve. Arrange chicken in shallow roasting pan coated with cooking spray. Pour reserved marinade over chicken; sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Bake at 425 for 20 minutes; baste chicken with marinade. Bake an additional 20 minutes or until chicken is done.
