Report
This simple recipe for marinated grilled chicken thighs is easy, inexpensive, and so mouthwateringly full of flavor!
Share:
Ingredients
- 4 bone-in, skin on chicken thighs
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice (from about 2 lemons)
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1½ tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- ¾ teaspoon ground cumin
- ½ teaspoon dried rosemary
- ½ teaspoons dried thyme
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- minced parsley optional, for garnish
Instructions
- Put the four chicken thighs into a large gallon-sized Ziplock bag.
- Place the olive oil, lemon juice, brown sugar, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, dried basil, cumin, dried rosemary, dried thyme, and pepper into the bag with the chicken thighs.
- Slosh the chicken around in the bag to thoroughly coat all sides of the chicken thighs and to make sure all the ingredients are combined.
- Let marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
- Heat the grill up to medium-high heat (350-400°F) and then place the chicken thighs skin side down on a greased grill.
- The chicken thighs will need to cook on each side for about 6-10 minutes depending on their size. Be sure the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F before removing it from the grill.
- Let the thighs rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. Top with minced parsley (optional), plate and serve.
Notes
- Storage: Store grilled chicken thighs in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
- Make sure your grill is between 350-400°F. Too cold, and the chicken won't cook through, if at all. Too hot, and the outside will burn while the inside remains raw.
- Marinate the chicken for 30-60 minutes. It doesn't need to marinate any longer than an hour.
- This recipe will work for both boneless and bone-in chicken thighs. However, boneless thighs will likely cook a lot faster than bone-in thighs, so be mindful of that.
- If you don’t have a grill or would rather bake your chicken thighs in the oven, bake the chicken at 425°F for 35 minutes, or until your skin is golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
