Another of Bobby flay's successes! I couldn't find Thai chilis, per se, at the store, so I picked up a jar of Wild Thymes Thai Chili Roasted Garlic Chili Sauce (?!. Although, I used less than a teaspoon, it substituted nicely for the chili and garlic in the recipe. This is an absolutely yummy recipe for anyone who likes some heat and it surely raised the lowly chicken thighs to a new level! I printed this one for my active recipe file!

Stock up the pantry before you try this recipe, because you will be sure to make a second batch sometime soon! This savory plum sauce is a great mixture of heat and sweetness. It finishes any chicken dish well, and also compliments grilled pork! Make an extra batch of the plum sauce and freeze it for a time when plums are hard to find. The flavor is just as rich out of the freezer!
