Golden Chicken

1. In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, honey, turmeric, garlic, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken to the bowl, toss to coat in the marinade, and cover with plastic wrap. Place the chicken in the refrigerator to marinate for at least 2-3 hours, or overnight.
2. When ready to cook the chicken, remove the chicken from the marinade and allow the chicken to sit and come to room temperature for about 30 minutes. Discard the marinade.

To Grill the Chicken (Preferred Method)

1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400-450°F). Brush the grill with a little bit of oil to prevent the meat from sticking. Place the chicken thighs directly on the grill grates and grill for approximately 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature in the thickest part of the thigh reads 165°F.

To Bake the Chicken

1. Preheat the oven to 425°F. Place the chicken thighs on a rimmed baking sheet lined with foil or in a greased baking dish. Bake until the internal temperature in the thickest part of the thigh reads 165°F, about 20 minutes.

To Cook the Chicken in a Cast Iron Skillet

1. Heat a cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add about 1 tablespoon of oil to the skillet, or enough to coat the bottom of the skillet. When the oil shimmers, add the chicken and cook until the meat reaches an internal temperature of 165°F, about 6-7 minutes per side.
2. Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
