Ingredients

Servings
  • 8 chicken thighs bone-in, skin-on
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • ¼ cup fresh lemon juice
  • 4 garlic cloves finely minced (I used my microplain to make sure the garlic is almost a paste)
  • 2 tbsp herbs of your choice I used parsley, rosemary and oregano. Thyme, sage and marjoram are all good with chicken too.
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. Whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, herbs of your choice, paprika, salt and pepper then pour over chicken thighs.
  2. Allow to marinade for at least 30 minutes but up to 24 hours covered in the fridge. 
  3. Preheat your grill for 15 minutes, medium to medium-low heat. It's a good idea to have a cool spot on your grill where you can move the thighs if they brown too quickly. Cook the thighs for 10-12 minutes per side.
  4. For the last 5-10 minutes of cooking I turn the heat up and allow the thighs to char a little, making sure the skin is nice and crisp.
  5. Remove the thighs from the grill and allow to rest for at least 5 minutes before serving.
