LOCATION

Directions

  • 1 Grill Directions: Heat grill. Place 2 chicken thighs between 2 pieces of plastic wrap or waxed paper. Working from center, gently pound chicken with flat side of meat mallet or rolling pin until about 1/4 inch thick; remove wrap. Repeat with remaining chicken thighs.
  • 2 In small bowl, combine all remaining ingredients except oil. Brush both sides of chicken thighs with oil; coat with pepper mixture.
  • 3 When ready to grill, place chicken on gas grill over medium heat or on charcoal grill 4 to 6 inches from medium coals. Cook 8 to 10 minutes, or until chicken is fork-tender and juices run clear, turning once.

Expert Tips

Grill the peppery thighs up to two days in advance of serving and refrigerate. At serving time, reheat the chicken in the microwave oven, or slice it cold for sandwiches.

Cut leftover chicken into chunks and use it in your favorite chicken salad recipe for a spicer version.

With any spicy meal, serve bread or rice to soak up the heat--it's actually more effective than a glass of water, which spreads the pepperiness around inside the mouth. This chicken would be especially good with refried beans and yellow rice, coleslaw and sliced tomatoes. To bring the meal to a cool conclusion, scoop fruit-flavored sorbet into dishes of fresh fruit salad.
