Description

A vibrant dish that combines pan-seared chicken thighs with a creamy and spicy sauce, delivering a flavor explosion of sweet and heat.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Black Pepper
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • 2 tablespoons Vegetable Oil
  • 1/2 cup Mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup Sweet Chili Sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Sriracha Sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Honey
  • 2 tablespoons Green Onions


Instructions

  1. Season the boneless skinless chicken thighs with kosher salt, black pepper, and paprika, ensuring each piece is well-coated.
  2. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the seasoned chicken thighs to the skillet in a single layer.
  4. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through.
  5. Prepare the sauce by mixing together the mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha, and honey until smooth and well-combined.
