Step 1

Debone the chicken thighs, keeping the skin on. Click here to learn how.

Step 2

In a bowl, mix all the Char Siu sauce ingredients together and stir until well combined. Add the garlic and chicken, then pour in the Char Siu sauce. Stir to coat the chicken thoroughly. (You can use half of the Char Siu sauce to marinate the chicken and save the other half for later.)

Step 3

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the chicken on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and roast for 20 minutes, or until the skin is nicely charred. Slice the chicken into pieces and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Save the drippings and serve immediately with steamed rice.
