Description
Quick and easy family friendly marinade, which pairs well with any favorite family sides.
Ingredients
Scale
- 6 boneless chicken thighs, trimmed
- 1/3 c olive oil
- 1/4 c Dijon mustard
- 1/4 c low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 T honey
- 2 T light brown sugar
- 3 cloves pressed garlic
- Salt (to taste)
- Fresh ground pepper (to taste)
- Optional: Fresh thyme leaves
Instructions
- Mix all of the ingredients, aside from chicken, in a glass pyrex container.
- Trim the thighs (and slice breasts into cutlets, if using).
- Add the chicken to the pyrex and stir to coat the meat in the marinade. Allow to marinate for at least 1 hour in the fridge, or up to 24 hours.
- Then, heat up your grill to medium.
- Grill thighs about 3-4 minutes per side, looking for the nice grill marks before flipping, keeping your grill to a temperature of about 350-400 degrees, monitoring closely.
Notes
- If your family prefers chicken breast meat, you can trim breasts into cutlets and follow the instructions for the thighs
- You could also bake these on a foil lined baking sheet in the oven at 425 degrees for about 12 minutes (or until measuring 165 degrees internal temperature)
