No grill? Bake the packets at 425° for 15 minutes or until desired degree of doneness. Remove the foil and arrange fillets over asparagus for a lovely presentation for dinner tonight.

Make-ahead tip: Mix up the glaze first thing in the morning, and allow the chicken thighs to marinate all day in the refrigerator to soak up even more flavor. After that, getting dinner on the table is as simple as heating up the grill pan.

Serve with:
Miso-Braised Mustard Greens

Better grab a knife and a fork for these melty, mile-high Italian subs.... and maybe a few napkins. From start to finish, this sandwich can be table-ready in a zippy 30 minutes.
