Spicy Honey Chicken


I'm back! Had to take a break to give birth and survive the first few months of a new baby :)

But I'm cooking again and still always trying to find delicious gluten-free meals.

Here's one we tried the other night. I found it here at the Our Best Bites website. There are some other tasty looking recipes there so you might see more.

I used chicken breasts

2 tsp vegetable oil

Rub:
2 tsp granulated garlic
2 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp coriander
1 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp chipotle chili powder (I just used regular old chile powder above and omitted this because I didn't have any!)

Glaze:
1/2 Cup Honey
1 Tblsp Cider Vinegar (BRAGG'S, HEINZ are gluten free)

Directions:
Combine the rub spices in bowl and mix well. Trim off any excess fat from the chicken pieces. Drizzle oil over chicken and rub it in to coat all the pieces. Rub spice mixture on each piece of chicken to thoroughly coat. Grill chicken for 3-5 minutes on each side, until cooked through.

While 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.

Then, when you're done cooking and your chicken is on the plate, drizzle some of that set-aside glaze on top.

Yum!
