Absolutely delicious! Where is that extra 6th star when you need it? The spices used in this recipe meld together nicely to create a wonderful coating for the chicken thighs, and the final step of brushing on the honey/cider really topped it off nicely to create a sweet and tangy glaze that everyone thoroughly enjoyed. I will make this dish often, and I can't think of a thing I would want to change. Thank you for sharing your recipe, Annie 007. Made for the "Best of 2011" tag game.

I was nervous that the thighs wouldn't be cooked with the short broiling time, so I baked them for about 20 minutes first then broiled for a couple minutes on each side, basting with the honey/vinegar mixture. These were delicious!! Will make again, thanks!

Made this tonight with a few changes. Used cornstarch instead of flour and added a half tablespoon of fresh ginger. Didn't add the salt and pepper and it was not missed. For easier clean-up, lined the pan with no-stick foil. YUM!

Delicious, quick, easy - what more can you ask for? :) I halved the recipe (and quartered the honey glaze, which was plenty). I was unsure about the short broil time, but it turned out perfect. Served with salad and baked beans for an excellent weeknight meal. Thanks for sharing!
