Honey Sriracha Chicken Recipe

Honey Sriracha Chicken Recipe
Prep 10 min Cook 15 min Serves 4 Source

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup sriracha
  • 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup white wine vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
  • 1 tablespoon onion powder
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 4 large chicken breasts (this recipe can marinate more if needed)
  • Olive oil as needed

Steps

  1. 1

    Whisk all of the marinade ingredients together until well combined. Reserve half of the marinade to use later for basting and serving.

  2. 2

    Marinate your chicken in a baggie or large bowl, sealed, at least 8 hours in the refrigerator, or overnight for even more flavor. If time is a factor, you can marinate for 30 minutes to get some additional flavor.

  3. 3

    Heat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates.

  4. 4

    Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade. Grill the chicken 5 minutes per side to get a nice sear.

  5. 5

    Baste/brush on a few spoonsful of the reserved honey-sriracha sauce and continue to grill until you reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees F when measured with a meat thermometer. I like to baste a few times while cooking.

  6. 6

    Remove from heat and let rest a couple minutes.

  7. 7

    Serve with the remaining reserved honey-sriracha sauce.
