Grilled Honey Mustard GLazed Chicken Thighs
Okay grill people…this is for you and one of those quick week-night dinners that uses very few ingredients but is amazingly delicious.
You already know I love anything honey mustard-like especially this recipe that I make in the oven.
Summer begs for a grilled version so the scorching oven heat doesn’t have to compete with the air-conditioned interior of the house and we made this recipe the other night with just a few staples from my pantry and it was absolutely wonderful.
Marinade the meat for at least an hour, reserving 1/2 cup of the marinade to brush on the finished grilled chicken thighs. It’s a great summer weeknight dish that you’ll come back to!
