Spicy Honey Chicken

Spicy Honey Chicken
This is one of my family’s favorite meals. Both kids and adults gobble it up every time I make it. I love the combo of a savory spice rub combined with a sweet honey glaze. It’s pretty quick and easy too. You don’t have to think ahead about marinating because you’re just throwing together a spice rub. In addition to cider vinegar and honey, you’ll need an assortment of spices: garlic, chipotle chili powder, chili powder (oops, forgot that one in the pic!) Spicy Honey Chicken Recipe by Our Best Bites 8 boneless skinless chicken thighs, about 2lbs (Yes, Thighs!!) 2 t vegetable oil Rub 2 t granulated garlic 2 t chili powder 1/2 t onion powder 1/2 t coriander 1 t kosher salt 1 t cumin 1/2 t chipotle chili powder Glaze1/2 C Honey 1T Cider Vinegar Combine the rub spices in bowl and mix well. Use kitchen shears (or a pair of clean scissors) to trim off any excess fat from the chicken pieces.Pat dry. While chicken is cooking, warm honey in the microwave so it’s not so thick.

Honey Glazed Chicken and Bacon Bites I had an idea. Actually, it was more like my three hundred and forty-sixth idea for this month and I now have the hips to show for it. No biggie, I consider it a small sacrifice for eating food that tastes this good. So I asked myself: “Would it be a really crazy idea to wrap loads of bacon around chicken strips and brush them with a spruced up honey marinade?”. See, now that’s what happens when you blog from your desolated home or kitchen (in the burbs). Anyway, it turned out nothing short of a phenomenal idea that I simply have to share here in my little corner of the www. Ingredients: 1 pound boneless chicken breasts 20 thin bacon slices 3 tbsp honey 2 tsp coarse mustard fresh lemon juice Optional: salt Directions: Cut the chicken breasts—or fillets, as we call them here—in thin strips. Note: I’m using the Dutch equivalent to bacon in this recipe. Grab a bowl and combine 3 tbsp honey with 2 tsp coarse mustard. Squeeze in some lemon juice. Bacon rights all the wrongs in this world.

Dubstep Towards the end of the 2000s and into the early 2010s, the genre started to become more commercially successful in the UK, with more singles and remixes entering the music charts. Music journalists and critics also noticed a dubstep influence in several pop artists' work. Around this time, producers also began to fuse elements of the original dubstep sound with other influences, creating fusion genres including future garage, the slower and more experimental post-dubstep, and the harsher electro house and heavy metal influenced brostep, the latter of which greatly contributed to dubstep's rising mainstream popularity in the United States.[9] Characteristics Musical score of the above recording. The music website Allmusic has described Dubstep's overall sound as "tightly coiled productions with overwhelming bass lines and reverberant drum patterns, clipped samples, and occasional vocals Rhythm Dubstep rhythms are usually syncopated, and often shuffled or incorporating tuplets.

Football & Fried Chicken - The Garden of Eden - The Garden of Eden I am a New England Patriots fan. There, I said it. Yes, I grew up in Colorado and yes, we live in Denver now. However, I truly became a football fan when I met Rob and that was in Boston... and the Patriots won three Super Bowl Championships while I lived in Boston! And to be fair, Denver lost three Super Bowls while I lived in Colorado. The cards were stacked against the Broncos years ago. Anyway. Only in the past year have I become comfortable with the idea of occasionally frying food.

Better Than Takeout Orange Chicken Yesterday as I stood in the kitchen trying to figure out what to make for dinner I wondered to myself, how do those people do it on those shows where they are given random ingredients and are suppose come up with something genius. I think I stood there for a solid 20 minutes looking in the cupboards and staring into the freezer hoping that I would be struck by some ingenious idea. Then I saw the oranges, and it hit me “O-raang Shh-ikun”….that is orange chicken if you can’t understand the accent. I love orange chicken, and I almost always order # 14 Orange Chicken when we order Chinese take out and I wondered to myself if I could make it better at home. This recipe most definitely delivered! Ha ha Chinese food…delivered….get it? The sauce is sweet, tangy, there is no lack in orange flavor, and the red pepper flakes give it just a touch of heat. Combine corn starch, salt, and pepper. As you finish each batch, drain cooked chicken in a paper towel lined plate. Ingredients Chicken Orange Sauce

Baked Chicken & Roasted Red Pepper Taquitos I don’t know if I ever mentioned that my most recent job was at Natural Grocers by Vitamin Cottage (don’t ask me why they decided to make their name so much longer and more annoying to say). After working at restaurants for so long, this job was so slow some days that I would read the cooking magazines at the register and write down recipe ideas; my boss probably wouldn’t have been too stoked, but what can you do!? I am getting off topic though, being a cashier is pretty cool as a foodie for one reason- seeing what everybody is buying and spending all day thinking what you want to make for dinner that night. I went home that night on a mission to make my own, healthier, taquitos. Baked Chicken and Roasted Red Pepper Taquitos Yields 12 Taquitos Directions: Preheat the oven to 425F.

Spicy Pulled Chicken By Lauren Zembron, on December 15th, 2010 Do you like spicy food? I’m talking lip-tingling, sinus-clearing, runny nose-inducing spicy fare. Like this pulled chicken. Thanks to the trifecta of a whole jalapeno pepper, chipotle chile powder, and cayenne pepper, this Spicy Pulled Chicken definitely lives up to its name. I made this spicy pulled chicken on a cold, rainy afternoon, (where’s the snow, Boston?!) Plans for leftovers include pulled chicken quesadillas with an avocado & Greek yogurt sauce for dipping. Spicy Pulled Chicken serves 4-6 Ingredients: Directions: Heat a drizzle of oil in a large dutch oven (or other heavy-bottomed pot) over medium heat. *I like to make the pulled chicken early in the afternoon, let it sit at room temperature (off of the heat) for a few hours, and then warm it through right before serving. What is the best spicy meal you’ve ever had? Other recipes to check out:

Spiced cinnamon sugar breakfast puffs « Five And Spice On the off chance that your holiday breakfast plan is not yet inscribed in stone; in case you aren’t already bound and determined to have a strata, or frittata, or sticky buns, or perhaps puffy pancakes or spoon bread; or maybe you’d like to just add some icing to your giant, decadent, multi-course holiday brunch cake; well then dear friends, may I venture a suggestion. I actually feel a bit ashamed that I’ve been holding this recipe from you for so long. It’s a recipe that may, in fact, deserve a little shouting from the rooftops. I didn’t know any of the stories when I first started baking the original version (this is a wholly different iteration, but we’ll get to that later), I just knew that I had the recipe copied down on an index card from my friend, and I had labeled it “breakfast puffs.” That right there is a flag of whatever color you flag really wonderful things with. I was lucky enough to grow up with a whole gaggle of best friends. Then I tried browning the butter.
