Ingredients
Scale
Marinade:
- 6 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Garnish:
- Fresh parsley, chopped
- Lemon wedges
Instructions
- Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, mix together garlic, olive oil, paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper.
- Marinate the Chicken: Place chicken thighs in a resealable plastic bag, pour the marinade over the chicken, seal the bag, and massage the marinade into the chicken. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight.
- Grill the Chicken: Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Remove chicken from the marinade and grill for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the juices run clear.
- Rest and Serve: Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve with lemon wedges.
Notes
- For extra flavor, you can add a squeeze of lemon juice to the marinade.
- Make sure to let the chicken rest before slicing to keep the juices locked in.
