Have you ever experienced the joy of biting into a perfectly cooked chicken thigh? You know, the kind that's incredibly juicy and bursting with flavor. It's such a delightful experience. There's something magical about the crispy skin and smoky taste that just hits the spot.
If you have the time, place the chicken thighs in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Toss the chicken thighs to coat them evenly with the marinade. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for 1 to 4 hours to allow the flavors to infuse the meat. If you're short on time, you can skip the marinating step and move on to the next one.
8 Chicken Thighs
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 350 to 375 degrees Fahrenheit).
Take the marinated chicken thighs out of the fridge and let them sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes.
Once the grill is hot, place the chicken thighs on the grill, skin-side down. Cook for about 7 to 10 minutes per side, turning them over once, until they are fully cooked. You can use a meat thermometer to ensure the thickest part of the meat reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
Remove the grilled chicken thighs from the grill and let them rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
