Cassie's Notes:

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, cheaper.

I hope you try this chicken, and like it as much as we do.

Directions

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.

Add chicken to bowl; toss to coat well. I left it sit in the spices for a good 2 hours.

Place chicken on a broiler pan coated with cooking spray.

Broil chicken 15 - 20 minutes on each side.

Combine honey and vinegar in a small bowl, stirring well.

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.

They are delicious..Enjoy!

No one in my family likes dark meat so I made it with chicken breasts. I baked it first, then broiled, adjusting only the cooking times. It disappeared before I even got to the dining table. It was delicious!!!!!

How long did you bake it for before you broiled it? Juday

Hi Juday ... just 25 minutes. Boneless skinless chicken breasts cook quickly.

Oh yeah ... forgot ... senior moments today ... I broiled for about 5 minutes. It doesn't take long to get a nice crusty glaze with honey.

Cass, according to my family, this one is definitely a keeper. I'm going to try it on the grill come summer.

Hi Cass,

We love chicken thighs at my house! I was looking for a new way to make them and this sounds wonderful. I will probably make them next week. Thanks for posting your recipe. :)
