Ingredients

10 to 12 boneless skinless chicken thighs (about 1 3/4 pounds)
1 tablespoon curry powder
3 tablespoons frozen chopped onions
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 teaspoon Asian-style hot chili sauce (can be chili-garlic sauce)
1 1/2 cups basmati or white rice
3 cups water
5 cups frozen broccoli florets
1/8 teaspoon your favorite supermarket-style seasoning mix

Directions

The night before: Unravel thighs to flatten and scrunch together in a large shallow oven-safe pan. Combine the following in a small mixing bowl in this order: spices, honey, Dijon mustard, soy sauce, and hot chili sauce. Stir. Pour evenly over chicken. Flip the chicken around with a fork until each piece is well coated. End by making sure the rough side of the thigh is down. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.

The next day: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Combine rice and water in a larger oven-safe pot. Stir. Cover and place in preheated oven.

Turn chicken over with a fork. Place in preheated oven, beside rice. Set timer for 50 minutes. About halfway through the cooking time for chicken, I like to flip the chicken over again. When the timer rings for chicken, turn off heat but leave it in the oven.

Rinse broccoli in colander. Place in a microwave-safe pot or casserole dish with lid. Cover, then microwave at high for 5 minutes. When timer rings, add seasoning mix to broccoli.

Excellant
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I think people that don't like this recipe don't like curry or spicey. I made this as stated with whole grain dijon mustard... because that's all I had. I steamed the broccoli and used my rice cooker for the rice. All I can say is that we loved it and it was very hard to not just keep eating it! It was a bit spicey for my daughters taste, but my husband and I loved it. The chicken thighs were very tender and moist! A keeper!Read more

A new family favorite
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I get so irritated when I read the low rated reviews by people who don't know how to adjust spices for their own preference... or who didnt even taste the meal. If something has red pepper flakes, dijon mustard and hot chili sauce in it, yeah, it'll likely be spicy.You may try omitting a spice if you are sensitive rather than panning the recipe. I'll admit this dish has a certain aroma that may be more pleasing to some than others, but for goodness sake, take a bite. My ten year old can, you can. And she loved it. My family was bored by the same old chicken and this was a refreshing change. I served it with the Neely's " Perfect Rice" and it was a hit.Read more

Pretty Easy & Tasty
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

So ... This is the first non-processed meal i have ever made (successfully, last time i tried meat loaf and turned the oven... on to self clean [cut me some slack, i'm a bachelor].) I got confused with the recipe because it calls for these frozen chopped onions in the ingredients, but never mentions it again. Overall though, easy to make. Also, it tasted good. almost had a thai peanut chicken taste. Maybe I made it wrong, I dont know. I am looking forward to leftovers though.Read more
