Bottle o’ Beer Chicken Thighs

I made the marinade for this. It was easy to make. D grilled. Very flavorful.
I think the NI is off (I put it in Sparkpeople) because it was a marinade, and we didn't eat all of the marinade. We had with Porcini Risotto.

1 bottle (12 oz) beer, preferably lager ( I used a Longboard Lager)
¼ cup Dijon mustard
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

6 scallions, white and light green parts only, thinly sliced
2 large cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon Kosher salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon Tabasco sauce
8 chicken thighs (with bone and skin), 5 to 6 ounces each

1. To make the marinade: In a medium bowl, whisk the marinade ingredients.
2. Trim the thighs of any excess skin and fat. Place in a large, resealable plastic bag and pour in the marinade. Press the air out of the bag and seal tightly. Turn the bag to distribute the marinade, place in a bowl, and refrigerate for 6 to 8 hours, turning occasionally.
3. Remove the thighs from the bag and discard marinade. Pat dry with paper towels then grill over Direct Medium heat, skin side down first, until the meat next to the bone is opaque, about 20 minutes, turning every 5 minutes. Serve warm.

Makes 4 servings.
