Equipment
- Cast Iron Skillet (see note)
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 8 bone-in skin-on chicken thighs
Sauce
- ½ cup thai sweet chili sauce
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- ½ tablespoon ginger paste or peeled and minced ginger
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 2 teaspoons sriracha (or other hot sauce)
Garnish
- ¼ cup peanuts chopped
- Fresh cilantro chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Whisk together sauce ingredients in a small mixing bowl and set aside.
- Place a large oven-proof skillet over medium heat, and add the butter. Once melted, place chicken, skin-side down, into the pan. Sear both sides of the chicken until the skin is golden brown and crispy, about 3 minutes per side.
- Remove the skillet from the heat. Turn chicken skin side up (if it's not already), and cover with sauce.
- Put the skillet in the oven and roast for 25-30 minutes until the chicken is cooked through (165 degrees F internal temperature).
- Turn the oven on to broil, and cook for 2-3 minutes to crisp the chicken skin and further caramelize the sauce.
- Remove from the oven. Serve the chicken from the skillet or plate it, and then garnish with peanuts and cilantro before serving warm.
Notes
If you don't have an oven-safe skillet, transfer the seared chicken to a baking dish and pour the sauce over top. Then, bake and broil as directed.
