Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 200 degrees C or 40 degrees F.
-
To prepare the glaze, combine all of the glaze ingredients in a deep bowl; whisk until combined. Pour about 2 cups of the sauce into a small, non-stick saucepan and reserve for later (you need only ¼ cup of sauce for the marinade).
-
Trim any extra skin and fat from the chicken thighs. Place the thighs into ¼ cup of marinade and toss to evenly coat.
-
Heat the peanut oil in a large skillet over high heat and sear the thighs on both sides until browned (about 4 to 5 minutes each side).
-
Transfer to the preheated oven and bake until cooked through (about 25 to 30 minutes). Change your oven settings to grill or broil, and broil for an extra 3 minutes, or until the skin is caramelized and slightly charred. They will look shiny from the glaze.
-
While the chicken is in the oven, bring the remaining glaze to a simmer on low-medium heat, until the sauce bubbles up and begins to thicken (it should take about 3 to 5 minutes).
-
In the last 10 minutes of the chicken cooking time, prepare the rice noodles to package instructions (usually placing them into a bowl and covering in boiling water for 5 to 6 minutes until softened).
-
When the chicken is golden and crispy, remove from the oven; transfer to a warmed plate and keep warm by lightly tenting with foil.
-
Drain half of the excess chicken fat from the skillet and remove any charred pieces (this is optional).
-
Heat the skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 cup of the glaze with the prepared noodles.
-
Stir fry for about a minute to combine, then add in the bean sprouts and carrots, and stir fry for a further minute or two.
-
Stir fry for about 1 minute to combine, then add in the bean sprouts and carrots, and stir fry for another 1 or 2 minutes.
-
Remove from heat, then place the chicken back into the skillet over the noodles.
-
Garnish with the green onion slices, red chilli and sprinkle with the crushed peanuts. Serve with the remaining glaze!
