Serves: 4-6
Ingredients
  • 1-2 pounds of chicken thighs (with or without the bone and preferably with skin)
  • 4-5 cloves of garlic
  • 2 lemons
  • ¼ cup of extra virgin olive oil
  • Parsley
  • Kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
Process
  1. In a large Ziploc bag, add the zest of one lemon, the juice of two lemons, ¼ cup of extra virgin olive oil, 4-5 cloves of crushed garlic, and some roughly chopped parsley (you can also chop up the two lemons used for zest and juice and include in the Ziploc bag). Place the chicken in the bag and let marinade in the fridge for 4-6 hours.
  2. Remove the chicken from the bag and season both sides with Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Preheat and outdoor grill and place the chicken thighs on the grill (with the skin facing up). Grill for 4-5 minutes on the non skin side (depending on the strength of your fire) and then another 3-5 minutes on the skin side. Thereafter, keep on turning on the thighs (about a 1-2 minutes a side) until they're completely cooked (technically, 180 degrees F).
