Ingredients
Italian Dressing
- 1 cup red wine vinegar
- 1.5 cups olive oil
- 3/4 cup pecorino cheese
- 2 tsp oregano dried
- 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes crushed, hot
- 8 cloves garlic
- 1/2 cup parsley fresh
Chicken
- 4 pounds chicken thigh boneless
Instructions
- Chop 1/2 cup of parsley and mince 8 cloves of garlic. Combine with 1.5 cups olive oil, 1 cup red wine vinegar, 3/4 cup pecorino cheese, 2 tsp dried oregano and 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper. Whisk well or blend.
- Reserve and set aside 3/4 cup of the Italian dressing marinade. Pour remaining Italian dressing in a zip lock bag with the boneless chicken thighs. Refrigerate overnight or a minimum of 4 hours.
- When ready for grilling remove chicken from bag and dispose of marinade.
- Preheat gas grill to medium heat. Lightly oil grates and grill thighs for 7-8 minutes per side until nicely charred. Cook until internal temperature of meat is minimum 165f.
- Plate and serve the chicken thighs with a drizzle of the remaining 3/4 cups of Italian dressing. Enjoy!
Notes
- Remove any large pieces of fat from the boneless thighs if present, but do not worry about small bits of fat.
- All grills are different so use the time as a general grilling guideline.
- For certainty use an instant read thermometer and cook to 165f minimum temperature.
- No salt was added due to the salt content of the pecorino cheese.
- 3/4 cup of the remaining Italian dressing can be used for a salad or drizzled on top of the chicken.
