Preheat oven to 350 Fahrenheit.
In a bowl mix the oil, 2 cloves of minced garlic, 2 tablespoons of honey, ½ of a lemon juice, lemon zest, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, salt and lemon pepper seasoning.
4 Garlic cloves, 4 Tablespoons Honey, 2 Lemons, ½ teaspoon Smoked paprika, 1 teaspoon Garlic powder, 1 teaspoon Lemon pepper seasoning, 1 teaspoon Onion powder, 1 teaspoon Salt
Mix the seasonings well until you form a paste.
Rub the chicken thighs with the paste, making sure to get under the skin of the chicken.
4 Chicken Thighs
Marinate for at least 20 minutes and up to 2 hours.
Heat a cast iron skillet or an oven-safe cooking skillet on medium high heat and place the chicken thighs skin side down. Brown for 1 to 2 minutes until a golden crust is formed.
Place the chicken in the oven and cook the chicken thighs until internal temperature reaches 165 Fahrenheit for about 30 minutes.
Remove the chicken from the skillet and set aside.
In the skillet you cooked the chicken, add the rest of the minced garlic (2 cloves), honey (2 tablespoons) and soy sauce. Cook on medium heat until the sauce starts to thicken for about 4-5 minutes.
Place the cooked chicken back in the sauce, add the juice of half a lemon and remove from heat.
Coat the chicken with the glaze using a spoon, add lemon wedges and garnish with parsley.
Serve with mashed potatoes, rice or a salad.
