Notes
Storage: Store any leftover hot honey garlic chicken and zucchini in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. For longer storage, consider freezing the chicken and zucchini in a freezer-safe container for up to 2 months.
Reheating: To reheat, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and place the chicken and zucchini on a baking sheet. Heat for about 15-20 minutes or until the chicken is warmed through. Alternatively, you can use a microwave, heating in 30-second intervals until warmed.
Serving: Serve the hot honey garlic chicken and zucchini with a side of rice or quinoa to soak up the delicious sauce. Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or basil for added flavor and presentation.
Chef’s Tip: For extra flavor, marinate the chicken thighs in the hot honey, garlic, olive oil, and seasonings for at least 30 minutes before cooking. This will enhance the taste and tenderness of the chicken.
