Bang Bang Chicken Thighs is a flavorful and easy-to-make dish featuring juicy baked chicken thighs generously coated in a creamy, spicy sauce made from sweet chili sauce, mayo, and sriracha. This recipe is perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or a tasty meal prep option.

Ingredients

Scale

Chicken

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs

Sauce

  • 1/4 cup sweet chili sauce
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1–2 tablespoons sriracha sauce (adjust to taste)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Chicken: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent sticking.
  2. Bake the Chicken: Arrange the chicken thighs evenly on the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the chicken is fully cooked and slightly golden.
  3. Make the Bang Bang Sauce: While the chicken is baking, in a small bowl, whisk together the sweet chili sauce, mayonnaise, and sriracha until smooth and well combined. Adjust the sriracha to your preferred spice level.
  4. Toss Chicken in Sauce: Once the chicken thighs are done baking, transfer them to a large mixing bowl. Pour the bang bang sauce over the chicken and toss gently to coat each piece evenly with the sauce.
  5. Serve: Serve the coated chicken thighs hot, garnished with chopped green onions or sesame seeds if desired, alongside rice or a fresh salad for a complete meal.

Notes

  • You can adjust the spice level by varying the amount of sriracha in the sauce.
  • For extra crispiness, broil the chicken for the last 2-3 minutes of baking.
  • This dish pairs well with steamed rice, noodles, or a crisp green salad.
  • Leftover chicken can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
