Step 1
Pat chicken dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt and black pepper.
Step 2
Whisk honey, soy sauce, fish sauce, and minced garlic in a small bowl until combined.
Step 3
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering, about 90 seconds.
Step 4
Sear chicken thighs 3–4 minutes per side without moving until golden brown on both sides.
Step 5
Pour honey-soy glaze over chicken. Reduce heat to medium and cook 5–6 minutes until glaze thickens and coats the meat.
