• 8 (5 ounce) boneless chicken thighs

• salt and ground black pepper to taste

• 2 tablespoons olive oil, or as needed

• ½ medium onion, finely chopped

• 7 cloves garlic, chopped, or to taste

• 1 cup honey

• ½ cup soy sauce

• 1 pinch onion powder, or to taste

• 1 pinch garlic powder, or to taste

• ¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro

1. Season chicken with salt and pepper.

2. Heat oil over med-high heat in a cast iron skillet and brown chicken on one side for 3-5 minutes

3. Flip chicken and add onion and garlic; continue to cook until chicken is mostly (but not fully) cooked and onion and garlic are soft, 5 to 7 minutes more. Remove chicken to a plate.

4. Add honey, soy sauce, onion powder, and garlic powder to the skillet. Stir and scrape the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon to get garlic and onion to mix with the liquid.

5. Return chicken to the skillet, cover, and reduce heat to medium. Cook until no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, about 10 more minutes, turning once halfway through. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of a thigh should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

6. Arrange chicken on a serving plate and drizzle liquid from the pan on top. Sprinkle with cilantro to serve.
