We love this chicken!! I have used different variations (thighs, drumsticks, breasts) and tried it both on the grill and in the oven and it tastes great every time.

Yummy! I used boneless, skinless chicken thighs. Was really good.

I did it in the slow cooker and used home made chili sauce and boneless skinless chicken breasts and cut it down for 2 people.
