Soy Glazed Chicken (20 Minutes ONLY!)

Soy Glazed Chicken (20 Minutes ONLY!)

Soy Glazed Chicken is the perfect weeknight dinner that takes only 20 minutes.

All you need is a few simple ingredients to make delicious Soy Glazed Chicken that is crispy and juicy at the same time!

Get your rice ready because you will want to drizzle the addicting sauce all over your rice and vegetable. 

crispy chicken

Here is my secret tip on making Soy Glazed Chicken that is crispy and juicy.

First, you will need boneless chicken thighs with the skin on. Deboning chicken thigh is super easy, or you can also ask your local butcher to do it for you.

Next, pat dry the chicken and add a thin layer of corn starch. The corn starch will help crisp up the skin and lock in all the juices from the chicken.

Lastly, pan-fry the chicken skin side facing down first and make sure to not put the lid on. You can enjoy the chicken on its own or pair it with my glazed soy sauce. 

Soy Glazed Chicken (20 Minutes ONLY!)

You will not believe how addicting Soy Glazed Chicken is.

The star of the recipe is the glazed soy sauce. You will need soy sauce, five-spice powder, minced garlic, and honey.

The leftover chicken oil also adds alot of umami flavor to the sauce.

PRO-TIP, after you are done cooking the chicken, use the leftover oil and seasoning to pan-fry your vegetables. 

Air Fryer Asian Chicken

If you have an Air Fryer, I also have a viral Air Fryer Soy Glazed Chicken recipe on my blog.

It is the BEST Air Fryer Soy Sauce Chicken you will ever try.

The chicken is crispy on the outside, while the meat is super juicy and flavourful on the inside.

Once you find out how simple it is to make Soy Sauce Chicken at home, you will be having this for chicken at least once a week!

  2. Pat dry the chicken with a paper towel and coat the chicken with corn starch on both sides. Shake off any excess corn starch before pan-frying. 
  3. In a pan, add oil and turn the heat to medium-high. Once the pan is hot, add in the chicken thigh skin side facing down. Pan fry for 7 minutes, skin side facing down, flip, and cook for another 5 minutes. 
  4. Remove the chicken and set it aside. 
  5. Mix soy sauce, minced garlic, five-spice powder, and honey in a bowl. 
  6. Drizzle the sauce into the same pan that the chicken was cooked and simmer for 1 minute. 
  7. Add back in the chicken and cook the chicken on high heat while drizzling the sauce all over the chicken for 1 minute.

About Me
Hi! I am Tiffy and I am a HUGE foodie. I love to cook, I love to eat, and I love sharing what I love with the world.
I was born in Taiwan, a country with some of the best street food in the world. When I think back to my childhood, I remember all the fantastic restaurants my dad brought me to when I was young. You see, my family is also huge foodies; we use to wander around night markets every weekend, skip the last period in class to try out new restaurants, and every summer, we would travel around Taiwan exploring all the new “must try” dishes around the country.
