Ingredients

2 tablespoons Chinese five-spice powder
2 tablespoons Hungarian paprika
2 tablespoons coarse salt
1 tablespoon minced garlic
2 teaspoons ground black pepper
1 teaspoon dry mustard
16 skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs
1 cup hoisin sauce
¼ cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons dark sesame oil
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon Chinese five-spice powder

Steps:

Combine five-spice powder, paprika, salt, garlic, pepper, and mustard in a bowl. Rub over both sides of chicken.
Combine hoisin sauce, soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, ginger, garlic, and five-spice powder in a bowl to create the glaze.
Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
Grill chicken, covered, turning once, until lightly browned, 4 to 6 minutes. Reduce heat to low. Continue cooking, covered and turning and brushing with the glaze every 5 minutes, until chicken is no longer pink in the middle, an additional 15 to 20 minutes.
