Spicy Honey Chicken Thighs














These chicken thighs were mouth-watering! The tanginess of the cider vinegar paired perfectly with the savory and spicy seasonings. The honey adds a little sweetness to the marinade, but the cumin and garlic salt really bring this dish home! I of course loved that this meal was easy to prepare, and my "sous chef" loved that it was easy to clean up.

2 t. garlic salt
2 t. chili powder
1/2 t. salt
1 t. whole cumin
1 t. paprika
1/2 t. ground red pepper
6-8 bone-in chicken thighs
4 T honey
2 t. cider vinegar

Preheat the oven to 425F. 

Combine all of the ingredients in a small bowl. Whisk well, so that all of the ingredients are evenly distributed. On a foil-lined baking sheet, arrange the chicken thighs, skin up. Drizzle about 1-2 teaspoons of the marinade over the each thigh (hint: I prepared the marinade before preheating the oven. This allowed the thighs to soak up the marinade!). Cook for 25-30 minutes, depending on the size/thickness of the chicken.
