Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup Dijon mustard
  • 1 1/2 tsp. Montreal Chicken Seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp. coarse kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp. pepper
  • 3 tsp. white vinegar
  • 1 Tbsp. minced garlic
  • 2/3 cup olive oil

Instructions

  • Mix honey, Dijon mustard, kosher salt and pepper, Montreal Chicken Seasoning, white vinegar and minced garlic in bowl big enough to fit all the chicken pieces. Slowly whisk in your olive oil until the mixture is thick, smooth and well combined.
    Remove 1/2 cup of the marinade and place in a small bowl covered with plastic wrap in your fridge. This will be used to brush the chicken with towards the end of grilling time.
  • Add in your chicken pieces, just a few at at time and make sure they're all well coated with the marinade. You will cover your bowl with platic wrap and place in your refrigerator for 2 hours or up to overnight.
  • Preheat grill to medium-high heat, about 400-450 degrees.
    Remove the chicken pieces from the marinade to a tray.
    Place your chicken pieces on the hot grill and grill about 6 minutes on the first side and then flip and continue to grill for an additional 6 minutes on the second side. I continue to cook my chicken, brushing with the reserved marinade, until it reaches an internal temperature of 175 degrees so I'm assured on extra tender melt-in-your-mouth chicken thighs.
    When the chicken is done cooking remove it to a platter and let it rest for five minutes before slicing and enjoying.
