Grilled Honey Mustard Chicken Thighs is a snap to make and absolutely delicious. This was a first grilling chicken thighs, so I decided to try a different marinade and basting sauce than I typically use. I thought I’d try honey mustard, and boy was it good!
Ingredients
I used the following ingredients for the Grilled Honey Mustard Chicken Thighs: Honey, Dijon mustard, mayonnaise, lemon juice, and Worcestershire sauce for the marinade. And skinless bone-in chicken thighs that had been sprinkled with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Making the Grilled Honey Mustard Chicken Thighs
I whisked together the honey, Dijon mustard, mayonnaise, lemon juice, and Worcestershire sauce in a bowl for the marinade.
Then I poured half of the marinade into another bowl to use for basting the chicken as it was grilling. I coated both sides of the chicken thighs with the rest of the marinade.
I covered the dish with aluminum foil and refrigerated the chicken for about 4 hours. Now it was the Master Taste Tester’s turn. He prepared the charcoal fire and grilled the chicken for a total of about 15 minutes. During that time he turned the chicken thighs several times, basting them with the reserved marinade.
When the internal temperature of the chicken thighs reached 180° F, it was time to eat! I served the chicken thighs with Betsy’s Potatoes, mushy peas (it’s a UK thing!), and a baguette that I had made earlier in the day. Yum!
