Hoisin Sriracha Chicken - Crazy delicious chicken dinner for the family! Marinated with hoisin, sriracha and honey. Takes 20 mins and so good!
Chicken is back on the site, and this Hoisin Sriracha Chicken recipe is well worth the wait.
I haven’t been cooking much in the past few weeks due to traveling, but I am back with a series of chicken recipes that you will love.
This Asian-inspired chicken is marinated with Chinese Hoisin sauce and Thai Sriracha sauce.
If you haven’t discovered these two sauces, you have to stock up immediately.
Hoisin sauce is one of my favorite sauces; it’s savory, sweet, and perfect for just about any protein and as a dipping sauce.
Sriracha is the fiery hot sauce or Rooster sauce.
When you combine these two sauces together, with honey, soy sauce, ginger and garlic, you have the most delicious, sticky, sweet and savory chicken that you want to have every day.
Make it for dinner tonight!

Hoisin Sriracha Chicken
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 lbs (45g) chicken thighs
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1- inch (2.5cm) ginger, peeled and minced
- 1 1/2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
- 1/2 tablespoon sriracha sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 tablespoon oil
- white sesame, optional
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the chicken with the garlic, ginger, hoisin sauce, Sriracha sauce, honey, soy sauce, and salt. Stir to combine well and let marinate for 15 minutes.
- Heat a skillet and add the oil over medium heat. When the skillet is hot, add the chicken (reserving the marinade) skin side down first, and pan-fry both sides until the skin is nicely browned. Then, add the marinade to the skillet and turn the heat to low.
- Continue to cook the chicken until the sauce reduces to a thicker consistency. When the chicken is cooked through, turn off the heat, garnish with white sesame, and serve immediately with steamed rice.

Hi Bee. Love your recipes, thanks! How long can I keep the chicken in the marinade? I was hoping to prepare in the morning and grill at suppertime. Thanks for any help!
Hi Janet, thanks for your sweet note. You can keep in the marinade for a few hours. Just keep in the fridge. :)
Thanks so much! Made it yesterday and it was delicious, a really lovely blend of spicy savoury sweetness. Rave reviews from all guests!
what is sriracha sauce, is that the chilli sauce?
Sriracha is Thai chili sauce that is super spicy. You can use other chili sauce of your choice.
Would it be alright if I cooked the chicken in the oven? If so, what oven temperature and for how long?
Yes, you can. Just bake at 375 for 20-30 minutes.
Can I use chicken breast diced up instead?
Yes you can.
I made this chicken last night. My husband loved it! If you want it a bit more spicy, you can add hot chili oil. I deboned the thighs, BUT I barbecued the chicken. Only took about 5 min. one side, and 4 on the other. For me, it’s less messy than frying in my kitchen.
Yes, hot chili oil is a good idea and BBQ is even better. I am happy that you love my Hoisin Sriracha Chicken.
It was really good, It reminded my of Yoshida’s that we get at costco, only fresher
Très belle et surtout bonne recette. Merci mon Amie,et beaucoup de bises
Happy to see Hoisin in your recipe; one of the many underused ingredients in the Chinese ingredients pantry. I would add a few drops of sesame oil to the finished product. Yummm.
