When I made this I used chicken breasts and coconut oil and cayenne pepper, because that's what I had in my pantry. I also prefer to always cook with coconut oil because it is much healthier for you and does not taste like coconut. It turned out amazing! I found this recipe off Pinterest. I also served it with roasted broccoli and Teriyaki rice. It was really good!
- 8 boneless skinless chicken thighs, about 2lbs (you could use breasts as well but thighs stay more moist)
- 2 tsp oil (I used coconut oil, but you can use any oil you'd like (olive, vegetable, etc.)
- 2 teaspoons granulated garlic (you can sub 1 teaspoon garlic powder here)
- 2 teaspoons chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon coriander, crushed or powdered
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon chipotle chili powder (I used cayenne pepper- it came out spicy enough)
- 1/2 cup Honey
- 1 Tablespoon Cider Vinegar
Drizzle oil over chicken and rub in with your hands to lightly coat all the pieces. Then toss chicken with the spice rub to coat all sides well. Use your hands and get in there!
Grill chicken for 3-5 minutes on each side, until cooked through.
While chicken is cooking, warm honey in the microwave so it’s not so thick. Add the vinegar and combine well.
Drizzle honey glaze over chicken (both sides) in the final moments of grilling.
Reserve 2 Tablespoons of the honey glaze for later after the chicken has cooked to pour on right before serving.
*I’m going to warn you that this can make a hot mess, literally. It’s sugar, and it’s gonna drip. But the smelly smoke is worth it for a minute or two. Just leave your grill on for a few minutes after the chicken is done to burn off any excess glaze. It’s totally worth it once you taste this stuff. If you don’t have a BBQ, try it on an indoor grill pan or use your broiler. Just be sure to open a window in case you burn your glaze!
