Description

Tender chicken thighs glazed in a sweet and spicy sauce, served over garlicky spaghetti for a quick, flavorful meal.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Crust:

  • 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 8 oz spaghetti
  • 3 tbsp olive oil, divided
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp sriracha (adjust to taste)
  • 1 tsp red pepper flakes
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish

Instructions

1. Prepare the Crust:

  1. Cook spaghetti according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  2. In a large skillet, heat 1 tbsp olive oil over medium-high heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper, then cook until browned and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes. Remove chicken and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add remaining 2 tbsp olive oil and minced garlic. Sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Add honey, soy sauce, sriracha, and red pepper flakes to the skillet. Stir to combine and simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.
  5. Return chicken to the skillet, tossing to coat in the sauce. Cook for another 2 minutes.
  6. Add cooked spaghetti to the skillet, tossing everything together until well combined. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
