The ingredients are:
  • 3 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs (about 12 pieces)
  • 3/4 cups ketchup

  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Trim off any visible fat from chicken. Arrange thighs in a single layer in a 9 x 13-inch baking dish. Set aside.

  • Step 2: IN a medium bowl, whisk together ketchup, salsa, honey, Dijon mustard, chili powder, and cumin until well blended. Pour sauce over chicken. Turn pieces to coat both sides with sauce.

  • Step 3: Bake, uncovered, at 400-degrees F for 45 minutes. When chicken is done, arrange thighs on a serving platter and keep warm.

  • Step 4: Pour sauce into a small saucepan, skimming off as much fat as possible.

  • Step 5: In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with 1 tablespoon water until smooth. Add sauce. Bring to a boil, and cook until sauce thickens, stirring constantly. Pour extra sauce over chicken or serve it on the side as a dipping sauce.

  • Step 6: Hint: Chicken breasts or drumsticks can be used in place of thighs. If using chicken breasts, bake them for 30 minutes instead of 45.
