My tweaks are in ( ). Next time, I'd use more Sriracha sauce.

Honey Chili Beer Chicken

Ingredients

3 tbs olive oil

6 boneless skinless chicken thigh filets (I used 4)

1/2 tsp salt

1 tsp pepper

1-2 tbs flour

½ cup sliced sweet white onions (regular yellow onion)

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup brown ale, divided in half (pale ale)

1 tbs balsamic vinegar

2 tbs honey

½ tsp red chili sauce (such as Sriracha) plus additional if desired (1 teaspoon)

Instructions

In a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat add the olive oil.

Sprinkle the chicken thighs on all sides with salt, pepper and flour.

Cook the chicken thighs until browned on all sides, about 3 minutes per side. Remove, and set aside.

Reduce heat to medium-low, add the onions and caramelize over medium heat until golden brown, about 10 to 15 minutes.

Stir in the garlic then add ½ cup brown ale, balsamic vinegar, honey and chili sauce. Simmer until reduced and thickened. Add the chicken back to the pan along with the remaining ½ cup brown ale.

Cover loosely with a lid, lower heat to maintain a simmer and allow to cook until chicken is cooked through, about an additional 10 minutes. Turning once during cooking.

We ate about half of this tonight. I think the rest would do well chopped up and added to some cooked rice or soba noodles with some thinly sliced veggies, like red pepper and scallion.

I think we would love this and I always need recipes to use up the beer people leave us every summer

we're just not beer drinkers. My German relatives would shake their heads!
