_Adjusting my apron and flipping my hair_
Oh honey, let me tell you about this mouthwatering BBQ recipe that’s been driving my family and neighbors absolutely wild! I stumbled upon this combination during one of my weekend cooking experiments, and let’s just say, it’s become the talk of every backyard gathering since.
Picture this: Juicy, honey-glazed chicken thighs with a kick of spice, charred to perfection on the grill, and topped with a homemade tangy mango salsa that’ll make your taste buds dance. Trust me, this isn’t your average BBQ recipe – it’s what I like to call my “Sweet Heat Street Cred” chicken!
What you’ll need (because mama doesn’t gatekeep recipes):
– 8 bone-in chicken thighs
– 4 tablespoons honey
– 3 tablespoons sriracha
– 2 tablespoons soy sauce
– 4 cloves minced garlic
– Fresh lime juice
– Your favorite BBQ rub
For the mango salsa:
– 2 ripe mangoes, diced
– 1 red onion, finely chopped
– 1 jalapeño (seeds removed if you’re a spice wimp 😉)
– Fresh cilantro
– Lime juice
– Salt to taste

Now, let’s get cooking (with attitude, of course):
1. Mix honey, sriracha, soy sauce, and garlic in a bowl. Massage this goodness into your chicken thighs like you’re giving them a spa treatment. Let them marinate for at least 2 hours (overnight if you’re a planning queen).
1. While that’s happening, make your mango salsa by combining all ingredients. Pop it in the fridge – the longer it sits, the better it gets, just like fine wine!
1. Heat your grill to medium-high heat (around 375°F). Give those grates a good brush – we’re not savages here!
1. Season your chicken with BBQ rub right before grilling. Place them skin-side down first (we want that crispy skin, darling!).
1. Grill for about 6-7 minutes each side, or until internal temperature hits 165°F. Brush with remaining marinade during the last few minutes.
1. Let it rest for 5 minutes (patience is a virtue, sweetie).
1. Top with that heavenly mango salsa, and watch everyone’s eyes light up!
The secret to this recipe? It’s all in the timing and the love you put into it. And maybe a little sass – okay, a lot of sass!
