Description

A cozy fall dish featuring tender chicken thighs in a creamy, spicy sauce that’s perfect for family dinners.


Ingredients

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce (adjust to your heat preference)
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish


Instructions

  1. Prepare the chicken by seasoning the thighs with salt and pepper on both sides.
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Once hot, add the chicken thighs and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.
  3. Make the sauce by whisking together the mayonnaise, sriracha, lime juice, and honey in a small bowl until smooth.
  4. Combine the sauce with the cooked chicken, reducing the heat to low, and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes.
  5. Serve the chicken on a plate, garnish with fresh cilantro, and enjoy!

Notes

Consider marinating the chicken in the sauce for enhanced flavor. Adjust the heat level by modifying the sriracha amount.
