**Tantalize your taste buds with a delectable culinary journey as we present Fusion Grilled Chicken Thighs, a symphony of flavors that seamlessly blend the best of East and West.**

This exceptional dish takes succulent chicken thighs and marinates them in a tantalizing blend of Asian-inspired ingredients like soy sauce, ginger, and garlic, along with a hint of zesty lime and aromatic herbs. The result is a marinade that infuses the chicken with umami-rich, citrusy goodness.

Once marinated, the chicken thighs are grilled to perfection, ensuring a tender, juicy interior and a beautifully charred exterior. The smoky aroma and grill marks add an irresistible depth of flavor to each bite.

Accompanying the grilled chicken thighs is a delightful array of dipping sauces, each offering a unique flavor profile. From a classic chimichurri sauce bursting with fresh herbs and tangy vinegar to a creamy and flavorful tzatziki sauce, these accompaniments elevate the chicken to new heights.

To complete this culinary masterpiece, the recipe provides instructions for a refreshing cucumber salad, a crisp and light side dish that perfectly complements the grilled chicken.

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 skin-on, bone-in chicken thighs (about 2 pounds)
1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon neutral oil, such as canola or safflower oil
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon lemon pepper seasoning
1/2 teaspoon cayenne

Steps:

  • Pat the chicken with paper towels until very dry; transfer to a plate or baking sheet. Brush the chicken thighs all over with 1 tablespoon oil.
  • Heat a large cast-iron grill pan over medium heat. Stir together the salt, paprika, cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, lemon pepper seasoning and cayenne in a small bowl. Sprinkle the chicken all over with the spice mixture.
  • Brush the grill pan with the remaining 1 teaspoon oil. Add the chicken thighs to the grill pan skin-side down. Cook, rotating the pan on the burner several times to ensure even browning, until the skin has deep-brown grill marks (check the underside by gently lifting up each thigh with tongs), 10 to 12 minutes. Rotate each chicken thigh 90 degrees and continue grilling until deep brown crosshatch marks are visible and the skin is quite brown all over, about 5 minutes.
  • Flip the chicken thighs over and grill the flesh side until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh (near but not touching bone) registers 160 degrees F, 6 to 9 minutes. Let the thighs rest 5 minutes before serving.

FUSION GRILLED CHICKEN THIGHS

Got this from another website. Their recipe is grilling it but I find it tastes better when baked.

Provided by Krystal McDow

Categories     Chicken

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 3

1/2 c italian dressing
1/2 c teriyaki sauce
4-6 chicken thighs (you can use any chicken pieces)

Steps:

  • 1. Combine dressing and sauce.
  • 2. Add chicken and marinate overnight.
  • 3. Bake at 375 degrees for 50 minutes.

Tips:

  • Prep the chicken ahead of time: Marinating the chicken thighs for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight, will help them absorb the flavors and cook more evenly.
  • Use a hot grill: A hot grill will help to sear the chicken and prevent it from sticking. Aim for a grill temperature of around 400°F (200°C).
  • Don't overcrowd the grill: If you overcrowd the grill, the chicken will not cook evenly. Leave some space between each piece of chicken so that the air can circulate.
  • Flip the chicken halfway through cooking: Flipping the chicken halfway through cooking will help it to cook evenly. Use a spatula to carefully flip the chicken so that you do not tear the skin.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness: The chicken is done cooking when it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). Insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the chicken thigh to check for doneness.

Conclusion:

Fusion Grilled Chicken Thighs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a summer cookout. The chicken is marinated in a flavorful mixture of spices and herbs, then grilled to perfection. The result is a juicy, tender, and flavorful chicken that is sure to please everyone at your next gathering. So fire up the grill and give this recipe a try!
