Marilyn Waltz combines chili sauce with plenty of garlic and basil to flavor these moist chicken thighs. We enjoy this tender grilled chicken not just in summertime, but throughout the year, notes the Idyllwild, California cook.
Ingredients:
1 bottle (12 ounces) chili sauce
1/3 cup white wine or chicken broth
1/4 cup olive oil
10 to 12 garlic cloves, minced
4-1/2 teaspoons dried basil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
8 bone-in chicken thighs (about 3 pounds)
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, whisk the first seven ingredients until blended. Pour 1-1/2 cups marinade into a large resealable plastic bag. Add chicken; seal bag and turn to coat. Refrigerate 8 hours or overnight. Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade.
2. Drain chicken, discarding marinade in bag. Moisten a paper towel with cooking oil; using long-handled tongs, rub on grill rack to coat lightly.
3. Place chicken on grill rack, skin side down. Grill, covered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from heat 15 minutes. Turn; grill 10-15 minutes longer or until a thermometer reads 170°-175°, basting occasionally with reserved marinade. Yield: 8 servings.
