Time 1h40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lemon, zested and juiced
¼ cup olive oil
1 tablespoon grated garlic
3 sprigs fresh parsley
½ teaspoon salt
8 chicken thighs

Steps:

  • Place lemon zest and 1 tablespoon lemon juice in a large zip-top bag; reserve remaining lemon juice for another use. Add olive oil, garlic, parsley, and salt. Add chicken thighs, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator, 1 hour to overnight
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Remove chicken from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade.
  • Place chicken on the preheated grill and cook, turning once, until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 8 to 9 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove from the grill and allow to rest 10 minutes before serving.

I served the chicken with a side of roasted vegetables, and it was a hit with my family. Even my picky kids loved it!

I marinated the chicken overnight, and the flavor was incredible. The lemon really had a chance to penetrate the meat, and the result was a juicy, flavorful chicken that was cooked to perfection.

These chicken thighs turned out amazing! The lemon marinade infused the meat with a tangy and refreshing flavor, while the grilling gave it a nice smoky char. Definitely a keeper recipe.
