- Preheat your grill to medium-low and oil the grate. Toss the chicken thighs with oil and then season them with salt and pepper.
- Place the chicken thighs on the grill skin side up and let them cook for 20 minutes. Flip them over and let them cook for another 10 minutes, or until they reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
