Honey Mint Glazed Chicken.

Serves: 6

We all love to eat grilled food but most of us do not try to grill things as we think it is very difficult to make grilled food. In fact grilling is easiest thing to do. Honey mint glazed chicken is one of the easiest chickens to make and it not only tastes great but when cooked properly it is very pleasant to the eye too so a perfect dish to be served to be guests. We have used the complete chicken while making this dish but you can easily use boneless or skinless or just thighs, it is really up to you what you prefer. Thus this is very versatile dish. This dish is nothing more than a grilled chicken which has been glazed with Honey.

Like every grilled chicken this chicken has to be marinated so that it absorbs all the aroma and taste of the marinade and can be cooked easily.
