Grilled Honey Mustard Chicken Thighs with Grape & Lime Salsa
Smoky honey-mustard chicken pairs nicely with the salsa's fresh seedless grapes.
Ingredients
- 8 boneless chicken thighs, pounded thin (about 2 pounds)
- 1/2 cup prepared honey mustard
- Salsa:1 medium cucumber, peeled, seeded and chopped
- 2 cups red or green seedless grapes (or a combination of the two), cut in half
- 1/4 cup lime juice (1 teaspoon lime zest, optional)
- 2 Tbs olive oil
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp freshly ground pepper
Directions
- Prepare the grill. Chicken may be cooked on an oiled grilling pan. (The pan should be very hot before placing the chicken on it.)
- Brush both sides of each thigh with some honey mustard and set them aside.
- In a medium bowl, stir together the ingredients for the salsa and set it aside.
- Grill or saute the chicken until just firm. Serve the chicken immediately with some of the salsa spooned alongside.
