Categories     main-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 1/2 pounds chicken (I'm using thighs)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon favorite spice mix (I'm using Old Bay)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons honey (I'm using wildflower)
2 tablespoons mustard (I'm using sweet and spicy brown mustard)
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 pound leafy greens (I'm using baby spinach)
One 14-ounce can beans, rinsed and drained (I'm using chickpeas)
1/2 cup sliced red onion
4 strips bacon, diced
1/4 cup vinegar (I'm using white wine vinegar)
1 tablespoon honey (I'm using wildflower)
1 tablespoon mustard (I'm using sweet and spicy brown mustard)
Leftover ketchup in the container (or about 1 tablespoon ketchup)

Steps:

  • For the chicken: Preheat a grill or oven to 450 degrees F. If using a gas grill, set to medium-high heat on one side and low on the other side. If using a charcoal grill, bank hot coals on one side of the grill.
  • Brush the chicken with the oil and season with the spice mix and a liberal amount of salt and pepper. Put the chicken on the hot side of the grill bone-side down, close the lid and cook for 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, whisk together the honey, mustard and soy sauce in a small bowl.
  • Flip the chicken, brush with the glaze and grill for 1 to 2 minutes. Move the chicken to the cool side of the grill bone-side down and apply the remaining glaze. Close the lid, open the vents halfway if using a charcoal grill and continue to cook until the chicken registers 160 degrees F in the thickest part, 15 to 20 minutes longer. If using the oven, place the chicken bone-side down on a baking sheet and roast, brushing with the glaze occasionally, until the chicken registers 160 degrees F in the thickest part, 25 to 30 minutes.
  • For the spinach salad: In a medium bowl, mix together the spinach, chickpeas and onions in a large bowl; set aside.
  • Put a heavy-bottomed skillet on the hot side of the grill, add the bacon and cook until crisp.
  • Add the vinegar, mustard, and honey to an almost-empty ketchup container and shake vigorously (or whisk together the vinegar, mustard, honey and ketchup in a small bowl). Remove the skillet from the heat and mix in the ketchup mixture to make a warm dressing.
  • Pour the dressing over the greens and toss together. Transfer the greens to a platter and top with the chicken.

SPICY HONEY-GLAZED HAM



Spicy Honey-Glazed Ham image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 4h

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 8-pound fully cooked bone-in half ham (shank or butt)
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1 cup honey
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup dijon mustard
1/2 cup whole-grain mustard
3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
3 tablespoons hot sauce
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Bring the ham to room temperature 1 hour before baking.

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack in the lowest position; preheat to 350 degrees F. Trim off any skin from the ham, leaving a 1/4-inch layer of fat. Score the fat with a sharp knife in a 1-inch crosshatch pattern without cutting through to the meat. Place the ham flat-side down in a roasting pan and add the chicken broth to the pan. Cover with foil and bake 1 1/2 hours.
  • Meanwhile, make the glaze: Whisk the honey, brown sugar, mustards, vinegar, hot sauce, thyme and red pepper flakes in a medium bowl. Remove 3/4 cup of the glaze to a separate bowl and set aside for serving. Remove the ham from the oven, discard the foil and brush with about one-quarter of the remaining glaze. Continue baking, brushing with the glaze and the pan juices every 30 minutes, until the ham is a deep reddish-brown and a thermometer inserted into the center registers 140 degrees F, 1 to 1 1/2 more hours. (Add 1/2 cup water to the pan if the juices dry out.)
  • Transfer the ham to a cutting board and let rest 20 minutes before slicing. Serve with the reserved glaze.

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!

Categories     Chicken Breast

Time 20m

Yield 4-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon ground red pepper
8 chicken thighs
6 tablespoons honey
2 teaspoons cider vinegar

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, mix together first 7 ingredients (all the dry spices.).
  • Place chicken pieces in the large bowl and toss to coat. Make sure each piece of chicken is entirely covered with the spice mix.
  • Line a baking pan with foil and place coated chicken pieces on it with space between each piece.
  • In a small bowl, mix honey and vinegar with a whisk and set aside.
  • Put chicken under the broiler for 5 minutes.
  • Turn chicken pieces once, and cook for another 5 minutes.
  • Take out and drizzle or brush on 1/2 of the honey mixture. Cook 3 minutes.
  • Turn pieces one last time and brush on the other half of the honey mixture. Cook until done, and keep warm in the oven until ready to serve.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the dish will taste. Use fresh, organic produce whenever possible, and choose high-quality honey and Dijon mustard.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken breasts can dry out quickly, so be careful not to overcook them. Cook them until they are cooked through but still juicy, about 6-8 minutes per side.
  • Make sure the glaze is thick and sticky: The glaze should be thick enough to coat the chicken evenly, but not so thick that it's difficult to spread. If the glaze is too thin, add a little more honey or Dijon mustard. If it's too thick, add a little water or chicken broth.
  • Let the chicken rest before serving: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Sweet and spicy honey Dijon glazed chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The chicken is tender and juicy, with a sweet and slightly spicy glaze that is sure to please everyone. Serve it with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
