1 1 tablespoon vegetable oil.  Preheat oven to 475Â°F. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a 12 cast-iron or heavy nonstick skillet over high heat until hot but not smoking. Nestle chicken in skillet, skin side down, and cook 2 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-high; continue cooking skin side down, occasionally rearranging chicken thighs and rotating pan to evenly distribute heat, until fat renders and skin is golden brown, about 12 minutes.
3. Place the chicken thighs on a broiler pan and broil, turning occasionally and basting with the honey glaze, 20 minutes or until meat thermometer inserted in thickest part of thigh registers 180Â°F. Note: Do not baste during the last 5 minutes of grilling.
