Spicy Honey Chicken


This recipe is great served with roasted potatoes and a salad. Or even with cous cous or rice. I served this with saffron rice.

2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tsp chili powder
1 tsp salt
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp ground red pepper
1 tsp olive oil
6 tbsp honey
2 tsp cider vinegar
boneless skinless chicken breast

Preheat oven to 400.

Combine garlic through vinegar in a bowl. Whisk together.

Cover a baking sheet with foil. Coat foil with olive oil. Dip chicken into honey spice mixture and coat. Reserve the remaining mixture for basting. Place coated chicken on the baking sheet and bake for about 15 minutes. Baste chicken with the remaining amount of mixture. Continue to bake for another 15 minutes or until chicken is cooked completely through.

Serve and ENJOY!!!!!

Wine pairing.........Riesling for a white wine and if you want a red, keep it mild. Pinot Noir would be great.
