Honey & Sage Pineapple Chicken. Trust me, it's like the lazy foodie's dream dish. Sweet, savory, and so easy to make, it almost feels like cheating.

First things first, you'll need chicken thighs because, let's be honest, they're the Beyoncé of the chicken world. Grab some pineapple (fresh if you're feeling bougie, canned if you're like me and convenience is your middle name), soy sauce, honey, a stick of butter (because butter makes everything better), fresh sage, thyme, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Got all that? Great! Now onto the "hard" part.

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees, because apparently, that's the magic number where culinary magic happens. Sprinkle your chicken thighs with garlic powder, salt, and pepper like you're seasoning with all the indifference of a teenager asked to clean their room. Melt half a stick of butter in a cast iron pan—if you don't have one, I'm judging you silently—then add your chicken. Now, drown that chicken in soy sauce and honey like it's the last meal on earth. Be generous. Throw in the pineapple slices around the chicken, because fruit makes it healthy, right? Scatter your fresh sage like you're a wizard casting a spell for deliciousness. Drizzle a bit more soy sauce because, why not? Then, into the oven it goes for 40 minutes. Sit back, relax, and bask in the glory of your minimal effort.

Once it's done, pull it out, drizzle more honey on top because we're all about that sweet life, and sprinkle some fresh thyme to make it look like you know what you're doing. And voila! You've just made what might be the best chicken flavor you'll ever taste, with very little prep work. Every bite is a crispy, sweet, and savory delight. Now, go feast like the culinary genius you pretend to be.
