Poultry
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.

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. Source: Southern Living, April 2005 |
