 Garlic Herb Grilled Chicken Thighs Recipe


Garlic Herb Grilled Chicken Thighs Recipe

These Garlic Herb Grilled Chicken Thighs are bursting with flavor from the fresh herbs and garlic marinade. The chicken comes out juicy and tender on the inside with a deliciously crispy exterior. Perfect for grilling season or any time you crave flavorful chicken!

Ingredients:

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme (or 1 teaspoon dried thyme)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried rosemary)
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon honey (optional, for sweetness)
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Marinade:

    • In a medium bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, thyme, rosemary, oregano, onion powder, salt, pepper, and honey (if using). Whisk until the ingredients are well combined.

  2. Marinate the Chicken:

    • Place the chicken thighs in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring each piece is coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, preferably 1-2 hours for the best flavor. You can also marinate the chicken overnight for maximum flavor.

  3. Preheat the Grill:

    • Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If you're using a charcoal grill, allow the coals to heat to a medium-high temperature. If you're using a gas grill, preheat for about 10 minutes.

  4. Grill the Chicken:

    • Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade.
    • Place the chicken thighs on the grill. Grill for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) when measured with a meat thermometer.
    • For extra crispy skin, grill the chicken on each side for an additional minute or two, watching closely to avoid burning.

  5. Serve:

    • Once the chicken is cooked through, remove it from the grill and let it rest for about 5 minutes.
    • Garnish with fresh chopped parsley for an added burst of color and flavor.

Tips:

  • Grill marks: To get those beautiful grill marks, make sure the grill grates are well-oiled and preheated.
  • For extra flavor: Add a teaspoon of red pepper flakes or chili powder to the marinade for a little heat.
  • Serving suggestions: Serve the chicken with a side of grilled vegetables, a fresh salad, or over rice for a complete meal.

This simple yet flavorful grilled chicken recipe is perfect for your next barbecue, picnic, or weeknight dinner. Enjoy the fresh and zesty taste with every bite!
