Taste of Our Home Tuesday: Crispy Garlic-Broiled Chicken Thighs

With our busy schedule we've been looking for quick recipes that we can make before we need to hop in the car and take off again.  We haven't used the broiler much and thought these chicken thighs looked easy.  They were very tasty.  The mixture for basting is very strong before they are broiled, but it leaves a nice flavor on the chicken.   Enjoy!

Ingredients
1/3 cup butter, melted 
1/4 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
7 garlic cloves, minced 
1/2 teaspoon pepper 
8 bone-in chicken thighs (about 3 pounds)  

Directions
In a large bowl, mix the butter, soy sauce, garlic and pepper. Reserve 1/4 cup soy mixture for basting. Add chicken to remaining soy mixture; turn to coat. 
Place chicken on a broiler pan, skin side down. Broil 4-6 in. from the heat for 10-15 minutes on each side or until a thermometer reads 180°. Brush occasionally with reserved soy mixture during the last 10 minutes of cooking. Yield: 4 servings.
