Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons honey
• 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
• 4 cloves garlic, chopped
• 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
• cooking spray
• 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 cup fresh lemon juice

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Combine lemon juice, honey, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic in a non-reactive dish. Add chicken; turn to coat all sides. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator, turning occasionally, for 1 hour.

Step 2

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Spray a shallow roasting pan with cooking spray.

Step 3

Remove chicken from the marinade and shake off excess. Arrange chicken on the prepared roasting pan. Pour remaining marinade over top. Sprinkle with pepper and salt.

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven, basting occasionally with marinade, for 20 minutes. Bake without basting until the juices run clear, another 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
