I found this recipe on a youtube video of Gordon Ramsey making this on one of his British cooking shows. These turned out pretty good and the flavors are fantastic! You can watch the video if that would be helpful! In it, he used whole chicken legs/thighs still attached together. I only had Chicken legs and they turned out great! You could probably use the bone-in chicken thighs. This is very easy and the lemon aroma will make your home smell so heavenly!
Ingredients:
1 lb chicken leg, about 8-10
salt and pepper
4 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons soy sauce
3 -4 tablespoons honey
1 head garlic, each clove sliced in half
1 whole lemon, sliced
1/4-1/3 cup water
1 tablespoon thyme
1/4 cup fresh parsley or 2 tablespoons dried parsley
Directions:
1. In a large skillet pan, add the oil to Med/High Heat. Season the chicken well with salt and pepper. Add the chicken to the skillet and cook for about 5-6 minutes, turning each piece.
2. Add the garlic cloves, soy sauce, and honey to the pan, making sure to get all the chicken in the sauces. Coninue to cook for a 5 minutes.
3. Add the water and lay the slices of lemon on top of the chicken in the pan. Put a lid on the pan and continue to cook for about 10-15 minutes.
4. Season the chicken with thyme and parlsey. Continue to cook until the chicken cooked through and no longer pink.
