Honey Lime Grilled Chicken

Ingredients

  • 5 pounds chicken legs and thighs
  • Brine
  • 12 cups water
  • ½ cup salt
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • Glaze
  • 1 ½ cups honey
  • 1/2 cup lime juice
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
  • 1 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • Chopped cilantro, for garnish

Directions

  1. Place chicken in gallon-size resealable plastic bags. In a large bowl, combine water, salt and sugar. Stir until salt and sugar are dissolved. Pour over chicken in bags. Remove air from bags to ensure that the chicken is submerged in the brine. Seal bags. Let brine in refrigerator at least 2 hours or overnight.
  2. Heat grill to sear or 450°F.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine glaze ingredients. Reserve half for serving with grilled chicken. Grill chicken, skin-side down, 10 minutes. Turn. Grill 10 minutes and turn again.
  4. Brush chicken with glaze. Grill 5 minutes. Turn again so skin-side ends up on top. Brush with glaze and grill until chicken reaches 165°F when tested with a meat thermometer. Serve chicken with reserved sauce. Sprinkle with cilantro.
Serves: 8
