Easy Broiled Chicken

Easy Broiled Chicken is a quick cooking method with room for your creativity or favorite spices.

While hot sauce adds flavor and salty goodness, you can just as easily leave out the hot sauce altogether or add just a little for a mild kick. Use this basic technique for everything from little wings and drummettes to whole bone-in breasts and thighs. Remember to broil the big pieces for longer; a large bone in chicken breast will take about 30 -35 minutes total under the broiler.

When it’s too cold to grill outside or you don’t have a grill pan, broiling chicken in the oven is a good alternative. Play around with this basic technique and you will have another go – to favorite to add to your rotation of easy chicken dinners.

Try substituting soy sauce or tamari sauce for the hot sauce and leave out the salt completely or combine the melted butter with a curry spice rub for Indian style broiled chicken. Don’t use dried herbs in this chicken- they will burn! Stick with ground herbs or powdered rubs for best flavor and appearance.

You’ll need chicken pieces, butter, cayenne pepper, hot sauce, salt and pepper.
