Sweet & Smoky Ark Pepper Glazed Chicken

This crowd-pleasing recipe uses Ark Pepper Company sauce to create a sticky, flavour-packed glaze that’s perfect for weeknight dinners or entertaining.

Ingredients

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs (or breasts)

• 2 tbsp olive oil

• Salt & pepper to taste

For the Glaze:

• 3 tbsp Ark Pepper Company BBQ Smoked Maple Hot Sauce

• 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup

• 1 tbsp soy sauce

• 2 cloves garlic, minced

• 1 tsp Dijon mustard

Instructions

1. Season the chicken
   Pat chicken dry and season both sides with salt and pepper.

2. Sear for flavour
   Heat olive oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Sear chicken for 4–5 minutes per side until golden brown.

3. Make the glaze
   In a small bowl, whisk together the Ark Pepper BBQ Smoked Maple sauce, honey, soy sauce, garlic, and Dijon mustard.

4. Glaze and finish
   Reduce heat to medium-low and pour the glaze over the chicken. Let it simmer for 5–7 minutes, turning occasionally, until the sauce thickens and coats the chicken beautifully.

5. Serve
   Spoon extra glaze over top and serve warm.
