SPICY HONEY GLAZED CHICKEN



Spicy Honey Glazed Chicken image

This is a simple worknight dish that will totally surprise you with flavor. It's great because every cook I know has all of these ingredients in their cupboards already! I got this recipe from a Cooking Light magazine and I serve it with pan fried broccoli and sweet hawaiian rolls. You can either use chicken breasts, or chicken thighs, and I recommend using boneless and skinless! This has only a medium spicy level, so just increase or decrease red pepper flakes to your taste... and enjoy!

SPICY HONEY - GLAZED CHICKEN THIGHS



Spicy Honey - Glazed Chicken Thighs image

This chicken is wonderfully sweet and spicy..not too sweet..just right with the spices. It kind of reminds me of the Chinese chicken on a stick. My family loves it..kept asking when I would make it again. I used thighs, I am sure you could use breasts. I like thighs, because they are always moist and to me more flavorful. Also,...

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 tsp garlic powder
4 tsp chili powder
2 tsp salt
2 tsp ground cumin
2 tsp paprika
1 tsp cayenne pepper
8 skinless, boneless chicken thighs
cooking spray
HONEY GLAZE
6 Tbsp honey
2 tsp cider vinegar

Steps:

  • 1. If only making 1/2 the amount of chicken, cut the amount of spices in half. In a large bowl; combine the first 6 ingredients.
  • 2. Add chicken to bowl; toss to coat well. I left it sit in the spices for a good 2 hours.
  • 3. Place chicken on a broiler pan coated with cooking spray. Broil chicken 15 - 20 minutes on each side.
  • 4. Combine honey and vinegar in a small bowl, stirring well.
  • 5. Remove chicken from oven; brush each thigh with the honey mixture, place back under the broiler for about 5 minutes or until starts to get a golden brown, making sure not to burn. Repeat on the other side. I then place on a platter and let it rest a few minutes, then if any glaze is left, brush each thigh again, right before serving.
  • 6. They are delicious..Enjoy!

SPICY HONEY GLAZED CHICKEN RECIPE - (4.4/5)



Spicy Honey Glazed Chicken Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by mjohnmeyer

Number Of Ingredients 9

6-8 boneless skinless chicken thighs
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon chili powder
2 teaspoons paprika
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1/2 cup honey
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

Steps:

  • 1. Mix spices together and set aside. Mix honey and cider vinegar and set aside. 2. Un-tuck chicken thighs so they are flat. Cover both sides in seasoning and set flat onto a greased baking sheet. 3. Set broiler on low and broil for 5-7 minutes. Flip thighs and broil for another 5-7 minutes. 4. Flip thighs again and baste each chicken piece with the honey/cider mixture. Be sure to cover the chicken completely. Return to the oven and broil for a few more minutes, just until the honey starts to thicken up and glaze (it may smoke a little but this is completely normal). 5. Remove chicken from oven and let rest for a few minutes before serving. navywifecook.com

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Chicken: Opt for bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs or drumsticks for maximum flavor and juiciness.
  • Pat the Chicken Dry: Before seasoning or cooking, pat the chicken dry with paper towels to ensure the skin crisps up nicely.
  • Use a Good Quality Honey: Choose a raw, unfiltered honey for its rich flavor and health benefits.
  • Make the Glaze Ahead: Prepare the honey glaze in advance to allow the flavors to meld.
  • Don't Overcrowd the Pan: Cook the chicken in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan and ensure even cooking.
  • Monitor the Temperature: Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) for safe consumption.
  • Rest the Chicken: Allow the cooked chicken to rest for a few minutes before serving to let the juices redistribute, resulting in tender and flavorful meat.

Conclusion:

This spicy honey-glazed chicken recipe is a delightful blend of sweet, savory, and spicy flavors that will tantalize your taste buds. With its crispy skin, tender meat, and irresistible glaze, it's sure to become a favorite in your household.
