Chicken tights, melted butter, sweet honey, fiery chili and aromatic bacon - all the goodness combined in one dish!
You can freely adjust the spiciness of the dish to your own taste by adding more or less chili. You can also replace them by adding some Sriracha or Tabasco sauce.
Chicken tights in spicy honey, according to this recipe, are very simple and quick to prepare. They match great, for example, with rice cooked with a few cloves and cardamom and a light salad.
And this sauce... finger-licking good!
Highly recommend!
