Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). If using an oven, preheat to 400°F (200°C).

Place the chicken thighs into a mixing bowl. Pour 1/4 cup of hot honey over the chicken and mix well to ensure each piece is evenly coated.

Arrange the marinated chicken in a single layer in the air fryer basket (or on a baking sheet if using an oven). Cook for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

While the chicken is cooking, prepare the sauce. In a liquid measuring cup or small bowl, combine 1/4 cup hot honey, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 1 tablespoon sriracha, 1 tablespoon minced garlic, and 1 teaspoon cornstarch. Whisk thoroughly until the cornstarch is fully dissolved and the mixture is well combined.

Pour the sauce mixture into a small saucepan and place it over medium heat on the stovetop. Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally. Reduce the heat to low and continue to simmer for 3-5 minutes, or until the sauce thickens to a sticky, glaze-like consistency.

Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the air fryer or oven and transfer it to a serving bowl. Pour the thickened hot honey sriracha sauce generously over the chicken, tossing to coat.

Serve immediately, optionally with steamed rice and broccoli, and enjoy this spicy, savory, and sweet weeknight meal.
