Garlic Herb Grilled Chicken Thighs
Report
Grilled chicken thighs (or chicken breasts) with a richly flavorful and bright, garlic and herb marinade! It's a super simple recipe that packs a pleasant flavor punch.

Ingredients
- 2 lbs. chicken thigh 6 pieces, trim visible fat, boneless skinless
- 6 Tbsp olive oil
- 3 Tbsp lemon juice fresh
- 1/2 cup chopped basil fresh
- 1/2 cup chopped parsley fresh
- 1 Tbsp minced oregano fresh
- 1 Tbsp minced rosemary fresh
- 2 tsp minced thyme fresh
- 1 Tbsp minced garlic
- salt to taste, freshly ground
- black pepper to taste, freshly ground
Instructions
- In a medium mixing bowl whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, basil, parsley, oregano, rosemary, thyme, and garlic. Season with salt and pepper to taste (I use a scant 1 tsp salt and pepper, not included in nutrition estimate).
- Place chicken in a gallon size resealable bag. Pour marinade mixture over chicken. Seal bag while pressing out excess air.
- Rub marinade over chicken while turning pieces to coat with herbs and garlic until it's evenly distributed.
- Transfer to refrigerator and let marinate 1 - 8 hours.
- Preheat a gas grill over medium-high heat to about 425 degrees.
- Grill chicken until center registers 165 degrees in thickest portion, about 5 minutes per side.
- Let rest a few minutes before serving. Garnish with more fresh basil and parsley if desired.
Notes
- I just measure halfway between 1/4 cup and 1/2 cup on the liquid measuring cup.
- *Chicken breasts may be substituted, use 6 (6 oz) chicken breasts. And check temp in center cooking right to 165. Don't cook higher or they'll start to dry out.
- **I just measure halfway between 1/4 cup and 1/2 cup on the liquid measuring cup.
- I like to serve this chicken with parmesan roasted potatoes and grilled corn on the cob.
