Skillet Cilantro Lime Chicken Thighs Recipe

 Skillet Cilantro Lime Chicken Thighs


Skillet Cilantro Lime Chicken Thighs

This skillet cilantro lime chicken thighs recipe is a flavorful and easy-to-make dish. The chicken thighs are seasoned with a combination of cilantro, lime, garlic, and other spices, then cooked in a skillet until perfectly crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Perfect for a weeknight dinner or a meal prep option.

Ingredients:

  • 4 bone-in, skinless chicken thighs
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice (about 1 lime)
  • 2 teaspoons lime zest (optional)
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped (plus extra for garnish)
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Lime wedges (for serving)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Marinade:

    • In a small bowl, combine lime juice, lime zest, chopped cilantro, minced garlic, ground cumin, chili powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
    • Stir the mixture well to combine.

  2. Marinate the Chicken:

    • Place the chicken thighs in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag.
    • Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring each piece is well-coated.
    • Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for deeper flavor. You can also marinate overnight if you have the time.

  3. Cook the Chicken:

    • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated chicken thighs, skin-side down if you are using thighs with skin (if skinless, just place them directly into the skillet).
    • Cook the chicken for 6-7 minutes on the first side, allowing it to sear and develop a nice golden crust.
    • Flip the chicken and reduce the heat to medium. Cook for an additional 6-8 minutes on the other side, until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (75°C), or until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the center.

  4. Garnish and Serve:

    • Once the chicken is done, remove it from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes.
    • Garnish the chicken with extra chopped cilantro and serve with lime wedges on the side for an extra burst of flavor.

Tips:

  • For a Crispy Finish: If you'd like a crispy skin, make sure to sear the chicken on the skin side first, and cook it at a higher heat.
  • Serve With: These cilantro lime chicken thighs pair well with a side of rice, quinoa, or a simple green salad. You can also serve them with grilled vegetables or wrap them in a tortilla for tacos.
  • Make it Spicy: Add some cayenne pepper or chopped jalapeños to the marinade for a spicy kick.

This skillet cilantro lime chicken thighs recipe is perfect for a quick and tasty dinner with a fresh, citrusy punch. Enjoy!
