Instructions

In a large bowl, mix together the chicken thighs and the rest of the ingredients. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least one hour and up to overnight.
When you're ready to cook, preheat the grill to medium-high heat (around 375-400°F). Remove the chicken thighs from the marinade and place them directly on the grill.
Grill the thighs for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Serve warm with your favorite sides and enjoy!
