Molasses-Glazed Chicken Thighs

This is one of our all-time favorites and never ceases to get rave reviews when served to guests! I buy the large bag of Tyson boneless chicken thighs (found at Sam’s or Costco) strictly for making this recipe! Original recipe states it will serve 6-8….not in my circle….more like 4 to 6! Our grill runs hot so I cook for 2-4 minutes a side.

Ingredients:

3/4 cup molasses
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup olive oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp pepper
12 skinned, boned chicken thighs

Cooking Instructions:

Combine first 6 ingredients in a shallow dish or large zip-top plastic freezer bag; add chicken thighs. Cover or seal, and chill 8 hours, turning occasionally.

Remove chicken from marinade, discarding marinade.

Grill chicken thighs, covered with grill lid, over medium heat (300° to 350°) 5 to 6 minutes on each side or until done.
