No. 1 : Quick Recipe
Grilled Chicken with Peach BBQ Sauce
- 8 – 12 Boneless, Skinless Chicken Thighs
- 2 TB Olive Oil
- 1 TB Sea Salt
- 1 Tsp Freshly Ground Pepper
- 1 Tsp Red Pepper Flakes

Step One
Place the thighs, olive oil, salt and peppers into a ziplock bag. Massage the chicken until well coated with the oil and seasoning. Set on the counter while you preheat the grill and prepare the bbq sauce.
Step Two
Place the chicken on a preheated, high, hot and clean grill, (or grillpan or cast-iron skillet, that has been *oiled). Turn the heat down to medium and grill the thighs until browned, about 2 – 3 minutes per side. Pour half the sauce into a ziplock bag and place the chicken in the bag and massage on both sides to cover the thighs. Remove from the bag and place it back on the grill and continue cooking about 2 minutes per side. Chicken should register 165F on an instant read thermometer when cooked properly. Sprinkle the thighs with parsley and serve the rest of the sauce on the side.

Klinkerbrick Old Vine Zinfandel
Lodi California
About $16
This California “dangerously” easy drinking wine is full of the juicy flavors of cherries and plums along with the perfect balance of oak and spice. There is a hint of cloves and cardamom when you smell it, and a delicious finish that hangs around in your mouth for quite a while. Interestingly, this wine was not aged in French oak, but American oak for 15 months, resulting in a super fruit-forward taste that’s perfect with the yummy peach bbq sauce.
