Instructions

1. Rinse the chicken, pat dry, and cut into 8 pieces.
2. In a bowl, mix 3 tablespoons honey, 5 tablespoons orange juice, 1 tablespoon hot mustard, 1 teaspoon soy sauce, and 0.5 teaspoon white pepper until combined. Coat the chicken pieces with the marinade, place in a container, cover, and refrigerate for 2 hours.
3. Heat 3 tablespoons oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and brown them on all sides for 5-8 minutes. Pour in any remaining marinade, reduce heat to medium, cover partially, and cook for 30-45 minutes, turning the chicken occasionally and adding water as needed to keep the pan moist. The chicken is done when the thickest part reaches 74°C (165°F) internally.
4. Transfer the chicken to a serving dish and garnish with a few sprigs of thyme.
