Broiled Chicken Thighs
No one can resist the charms of succulent chicken that has been richly flavored with a variety of spices and broiled to perfection.
Prep Time:
Cooking Time: 45 minutes
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1/4 cup red-wine vinegar
- 1 envelope Italian salad dressing mix
- 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon allspice
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 pounds chicken thighs
Directions
Combine vegetable oil, vinegar, salad dressing mix, brown sugar, soy sauce, thyme, allspice, cayenne pepper and cinnamon in a large measuring cup; whisk until well mixed. Pour half the marinade into a large bowl; reserve other half.
Pierce chicken with a fork. Add chicken to bowl, turning to coat well.
Preheat broiler. Drain chicken; discard marinade in bowl.
Arrange chicken on a broiler pan. Broil 3 inches from heat for 15 minutes or until juices run clear, turning and basting frequently with reserved marinade. Discard any unused marinade.
Secret Tip
Instead of mixing the marinade in a measuring cup, try combining the ingredients in a resealable plastic bag, then adding the chicken to the bag to marinate. Don't forget to reserve half the marinade to use for basting before putting chicken in the bag.
