I started playing with some asian flavors today... I went through some recipes and took what I liked and made it my own.
8 Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs
1-2 TBS butter/margarine
1 tbs chopped garlic (jarred variety works)
1/3 cup honey
2-3 tbs soy sauce
1 lime juiced
Fresh Garden Herbs:
I have a small garden with a variety of herbs going. I picked what I like to eat. I chopped them extremely small with kitchen shears. I was missing cilantro since it hasnt sprouted yet.
1 sprig parsley
10 leaves fresh basil
3-4 tbs minced green onion
Directions:
Melt the margarine in a small sauce pan, and sweat the garlic in the melted butter for 90 seconds or so to bring out the flavors. Remove from heat, wisk in honey, soy sauce, herbs and juiced lime. Put the marinade in a ziplock with the chicken and remove all the air. Marinate for at least 1 hour in frig, 2-4 hours is best.
Set your egg to 375 to cook direct on raised grate. I also added about a handful of chips, pecan this time. While egg is heating, remove the chicken from the marinade and put the marinade back into your small sauce pan on med-low heat and bring to a boil and reduce. Reduce the sauce by at least half.
Cook your chicken to your desired doneness, I cooked about 8 minutes each side at 375, and the last 2 minutes i opened the dampers and brought the egg to 550 to sear the outside and give a nice char.
Serve over rice with your favorite side dish, spoon the sauce over top. All i had in the house was canned corn (which I love anyway so poo poo someone else haha)
Marinade:
marinated chicken:
cookin
Reduce the sauce:
Pulled off and let rest 3 mins or so:

I don't think chiken gets any better than that. What a feast. -
Chicken looks phenomenal, but it didn't look like an indirect cook, did you do it direct on a raised grid?
