Hey Amy!

I found a chicken cookbook in my travels earlier this month and it was full of different as well as traditional chicken recipes.  One recipe I really enjoyed making is the one I am sharing today.  The lime and mint make it super refreshing on a hot summer day.  And I used the leftovers to make chicken salad for lunch.  Delicious.

Ingredients:

3 Tbsp. chopped fresh mint
4 Tbsp. honey
4 Tbsp. fresh lime juice
salt and pepper
12 boneless chicken thighs

Mix mint, honey and lime juice in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper.  Using toothpicks, assemble the thighs to the smallest possible shape.  Add chicken to the marinade, making sure to coat very well.  Cover bowl and allow to marinate in refrigerator for at least an hour.  Remove the chicken and drain.  Set aside the marinade.

Preheat oven to broiler medium.  Cook chicken for 15-18 minutes, turning the chicken and basting with marinade frequently.  Chicken is done with the juices run clear after a tip of a knife is inserted in the thickest part of the meat.  Remove toothpicks and enjoy!

This is a great meal or a snack at game night.  Don’t you want to enjoy some fresh mint today?
