# Steps to Follow:
01 -
Pop chicken thighs into a bag or dish. Whisk together hot honey, olive oil, lemon juice, zest, garlic, salt and pepper till it’s all mixed. Cover chicken well in the sauce. Stick it in the fridge for half an hour (longer’s even better).
02 -
Turn grill to high. Take chicken out of that tasty marinade and lay it right on the hot bars. Sear for 5 minutes. Flip and leave for 5–6 minutes more. Pull it off when inside’s 74°C. Let it rest a bit. Hit it with some more hot honey before you chow down.
03 -
Toss corn, cilantro, and green onions in a big bowl. In another bowl, stir together sour cream, lime zest, juice, salt, and pepper till smooth. Pour this creamy goodness over the corn, mix so it all gets coated. Have a taste and fix the seasoning if you want.
04 -
Dish up some chicken on plates with big scoops of that corn salad. Dig in right away.
# Extra Tips:
01 -
Let your chicken soak overnight if you've got time. It'll taste way better. Letting it rest before slicing keeps it juicy.
