🍒 Cherry Chipotle Glazed Chicken Thighs

Ingredients

  • 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs

  • 2 tbsp oil (avocado or olive oil work great)

  • 2.5 tbsp Cherry Chipotle blend(M-22)

  • 1 tbsp soy sauce

  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar

  • 2 tbsp honey

  • Optional: fresh chopped cilantro + lime wedges for garnish

blank

  • 1 tbsp Cherry Chipotle blend (M-22)

  • 2 tbsp ketchup or tomato paste

  • 1 tbsp brown sugar

  • 1 tbsp honey

  • 1 tbsp water

  • Dash of soy sauce or Worcestershire sauce

Directions

  1. Marinate the chicken:
    In a large bowl, mix oil, 2.5 tbsp Cherry Chipotle Spice, soy sauce, vinegar, and honey. Toss chicken to coat, cover, and marinate in the fridge for 30 minutes to 2 hours.

  2. Make the glaze:
    In a small saucepan, combine the glaze ingredients. Simmer over low heat until slightly thickened (5–7 min), then set aside.

  3. Cook the chicken:

    Grill method: Preheat grill to medium-high. Grill chicken 5–6 min per side, brushing with glaze during the last 2–3 minutes.

    Oven method: Preheat oven to 400°F (205°C). Bake on a foil-lined sheet for 20 minutes, brush with glaze, then broil for 3–4 minutes to caramelize.

  4. Garnish & serve:
    Hit it with fresh lime juice and a sprinkle of cilantro if you’re feeling fancy. Pairs beautifully with coconut rice, grilled veggies, or even a tangy cherry slaw.
