Spicy Honey Chicken Thighs

May 24, 2013 by Jaida 2 Comments

It’s time again for another Blogger’s Choice recipe swap, hosted by my friend Sarah of A Taste of Home Cooking. I received Dawn’s blog, Simple Gourmet Cooking, again and I was so excited! When I had her blog last round I had too many chicken recipes on my menu already so I had to bypass some fantastic-looking recipes. But not this round!! I was pretty much sold on this one as soon as I saw “spicy” and “honey”…two of my favorite flavors!

Spicy Honey Chicken

Sweet.Baby.Jesus. I could have eaten every piece of this chicken by myself. Just a little bite of spice and the sweetness from the honey glaze made for one deeeelicious dinner. Maybe I’ll save some for J. If he’s lucky. And I’ll definitely be making this again. Soon. I have just enough chicken thighs in the freezer for another batch!

Thanks to Dawn for yet another great recipe!! Be sure to check out all the other dishes from the swap below!

Spicy Honey Chicken Thighs
As seen on Simple Gourmet Cooking, via Cooking Light

Ingredients

  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1/2 tsp Kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp cumin
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 3 Tbsp honey
  • 1 tsp cider vinegar
  • Cooking spray

Preparation 

  1. Preheat the broiler, line a baking sheet with foil and spray with cooking spray.
  2. Combine the garlic powder, chili powder, salt, cumin, paprika, and cayenne pepper in a large bowl or resealable bag. Add chicken and toss to coat.
  3. Place chicken on the prepared baking sheet and broil for about 5-10 minutes on each side, until chicken is just about cooked through.
  4. Meanwhile, combine the honey and vinegar in a small bowl, stirring well. Remove chicken from oven, brush 2 tablespoons honey mixture on chicken and broil for an additional minute.
  5. Remove chicken from oven and turn over. Brush chicken with remaining honey mixture. Broil for another minute or until chicken is cooked through.

Welcome!

As a busy wife and mom who also works a full time job, I try to have dinner done in 30 minutes or less so I can spend more of my evenings with my hubby and baby girl, so what you will find here are recipes that are mostly-healthy, quick and easy. Of course I have desserts, less healthy and more time-intensive meals as well (everything in moderation!), but all-in-all, you can count on weeknight friendly options, all made with love and dished up with a side of life, love, and family!
