This is kind of a sweet-sour flavor. Serve with rice and a vegie. Leftover meat is good for a salad.

How To Make baked chicken thighs, asian-style

  • Step 1
    Mix all ingredients except chicken, cornstarch and water, thoroughly in a bowl.

    Remove thighs from marinade (reserving marinade) and place thighs skin side down on baking sheet. Bake 20 minutes. Turn chicken over, skin side up, and brush with some marinade. Bake another 25 minutes.
  • Step 5
    Pour remaining marinade into a small saucepan and bring to a boil.
  • Step 6
    Dissolve cornstarch in water and stir into marinade. Simmer marinade for 5 minutes.
