Season the chicken. Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper.
Sear the thighs. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken thighs, skin-side down, and cook until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes per side.
Saute the garlic. Remove chicken and set aside. In the same skillet, add minced garlic and cook until fragrant.
Create the sauce. Stir in honey, soy sauce, and apple cider vinegar, bringing the mixture to a simmer.
Coat the chicken thighs. Return the chicken to the skillet, coating it in the sauce. Continue to cook until the chicken is cooked through and the sauce has thickened.
Garnish, serve, and enjoy! Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions before serving.
