Spicy Honey Chicken

I don't have an outdoor grill, so made this in my kitchen instead. I broiled it, and it was good, but I think next time I'll throw in on my George Foreman grill. George is good for things like this.

3 boneless skinless chicken (about 2 lbs)
2 t vegetable oil

Rub

2 t granulated garlic
2 t chili powder
1/2 t onion powder
1/2 t coriander
1 t kosher salt
1 t cumin
1/2 t chipotle chili powder


Glaze
1/2 C Honey
1T Cider Vinegar


Combine the rub spices in bowl and mix well.

Drizzle oil over chicken and rub in with your hands to lightly coat all the pieces. Then toss chicken with the spice rub to coat all sides well. Use your hands and get in there! Grill chicken for 3-5 minutes on each side, until cooked through.

While the chicken is cooking, warm honey in the microwave so it’s not so thick. Add the vinegar and combine well. Reserve 2T honey glaze for later. Take the rest and brush on chicken (both sides) in the final moments of grilling.

Drizzle the remaining 2 Tbls of glaze over the top after you take it off the grill.

As a warning, this can make a hot mess, literally. It’s sugar, and it’s going drip. But the smelly smoke is worth it for a minute or two. Just leave your grill on for a few minutes after the chicken is done to burn off any excess glaze. It’s totally worth it once you taste this stuff.

If you don’t have a bbq, try it on an indoor grill pan or use your broiler. Just be sure to open a window in case you burn your glaze!
