Grilled Chicken Thighs with Mango-Ancho Sauce Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Chicken Thigh Recipes. (Grilled Chicken Thighs with Mango-Ancho Sauce Recipe). Sweet mango and smoky ancho chile are combined to make both a delicious marinade and a sauce for these grilled chicken thighs. This isn't spicy, so the whole family can enjoy it. I like to serve this with cilantro-lime rice.

Turn grill to low heat and brush both sides of the chicken with reserved mango-ancho sauce grilling an additional 1 to 2 minutes.
