Sweet and Spicy Grilled Chicken
Sweet and Spicy Grilled Chicken - CRAZY good!! Chicken marinated in an easy dry rub and grilled. Ready for the grill in 30 minutes! Brown sugar, chili powder, garlic powder, seasoned salt and chicken. We LOVE this chicken! SO much flavor!!! Great in wraps and on top of a salad too!! One of our favorite chicken recipes.
Sweet & Spicy is one of my favorite flavor combinations!! While I called this recipe Sweet and Spicy Grilled Chicken it isn't' really spicy per-say. It is more flavorful than spicy. The "spicy" comes from chili powder 🌶. I don't think regular chili powder is super spicy, but it does have a nice little bump of spice. If you are worried about the heat, you can certainly reduce the chili powder.
We let this Sweet and Spicy Grilled Chicken marinate in the dry rub overnight. You know our philosophy is the longer the better. I like to prep the chicken before I go to bed and grill it the next day. That ensures maximum flavor!
This Sweet and Spicy Grilled Chicken was a huge hit in our house. It had tons of great flavor and was super easy to make. We grilled extra chicken for leftovers. We actually loved this so much that we are making it again next week! We just can't seem to get enough of this yummy Sweet and Spicy Grilled Chicken! 🐔
