These sticky bulgogi-glazed chicken thighs bring together the best of American BBQ and Korean flavors. The chicken is seasoned with a sweet and smoky BBQ spice blend, then roasted until golden and caramelized. A glossy bulgogi sauce adds umami depth with hints of soy, garlic and sesame.

Perfect for meal prep or feeding a crowd, serve them over rice, with a salad or enjoy straight from the fridge. Each thigh is tender, juicy and packed with flavor.
