Marinate the meat with the garlic, chicken bouillon powder, sugar and oyster sauce. Let it sit for a minimum of 20 minutes or cover and refrigerate to marinate for longer.
Set up your grill rack and preheat the oven to 200°C (392°F). Our oven was set to 'fan grill'.
We used our oven's rack and placed it above a tray covered in foil to collect the drippings and make it easier to clean up after.
Place the chicken pieces on top of the rack. Our rack can fit about 4 pieces without being overcrowded. Fill your grill up with an amount that works for your appliance.
Note: If you have an outdoor grill, you can certainly use that instead. Also keep in mind that all appliances will cook food at slightly different rates, so adjust according to your appliance.
Place the tray and rack into the oven to cook for 5 minutes.
After the first 5 minutes, pull the tray out and use a basting brush to brush honey over the surface. Push the tray back in and let it cook for 2 minutes or until there's a char to your liking.
When the 2 minutes are up, pull the tray back out and flip the thighs over. Brush more honey on top and push the rack back in to cook for another 5 minutes or until golden.
Take the meat out to rest on a plate.
Serve on its own or with rice!

Cook with the skin on. Opt for skin on because the skin will crisp up and bubble as it grills, meaning extra flavor and juices.
Let it bubble and char slightly. The deeper the color, the more fragrance there is. Of course, this isn't the same as burning everything, but a char or golden brown will end up being extra tasty.
Let the cooked meat rest. After everything comes out of the grill, have it rest for 10-15 minutes so the juices can stay in the chicken.
Grandma has used bone-in chicken thigh and pork chops in the past. If you're a vegetarian, you can even opt for firm or fried tofu, hearty vegetables or your favorite mushrooms.
