Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Mix together the peanut butter, soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, and grated ginger to create the marinade.
Coat the chicken thighs in the marinade and let them sit for 15 minutes.
Dredge the marinated chicken in bread crumbs until fully coated.
Heat vegetable oil in a pan over medium heat.
Fry the breaded chicken thighs until golden brown on both sides, about 4-5 minutes each.
Transfer the chicken to a baking dish and bake for 15-20 minutes until fully cooked.
Serve hot, garnished with chopped green onions if desired.

Notes

For best taste, use natural peanut butter. You can make it spicier with a pinch of chili flakes.
