Tasty Tuesday

Here is a great chicken recipe to throw on the grill.  Instead of your conventional chicken breast, we're jazzing up chicken thighs!  Try this one out ASAP!

Ingredients

SERVES 3-4

• 2 Tablespoons grapeseed oil (or another neutral-tasting oil)
• juice of 2 limes
• 2 Tablespoons honey
• 1 Tablespoon chili powder
• salt and pepper
• 1-1/4lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs
• 3/4 cup chicken broth

• Directions

  1. Whisk together oil, lime juice, honey, chili powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl then pour into a large Ziplock bag. Add chicken thighs then squish to coat and place in the refrigerator to marinate from 1-3 hours.
  2. Make sure grill grates are clean then preheat grill on high heat. Remove chicken thighs from bag, shaking off excess marinade. Turn heat down to medium-high then spray both sides of chicken thighs very well with nonstick spray and grill for 2-3 minutes a side, or until cooked through.
  3. Meanwhile, strain marinade through a sieve into to a small pot then add chicken broth. Bring mixture to a boil then turn heat down and reduce until thickened and bubbly, 5-7 minutes. Plate chicken then drizzle with sauce.
