Crave-worthy chicken
Yes, yes...I know, we've all had BBQ'd chicken before and it's tasty...but I'd argue that this recipe (for which I give full original credit to the ever brilliant @pamelasalzman) is unlike anything you've tried before! Or maybe I should just say is a big winner in our house, and always a hit at summer dinner parties.
Marinade ingredients:
-
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
-
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
-
1 T red wine vinegar
-
4 cloves of garlic, minced
-
2 T oregano (FYI - the original recipe calls for fresh oregano, which I'm sure would make it even better but I always used the dried oregano for ease and speed & even more concentrated oregano flavor!)
-
2 T parsley, finely chopped (again here, tastes even better when you do this, but I often leave it out as I'm using the parsley for something else, and I still think it tastes delicious!)
-
2 tsp sea salt
-
1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
Directions:
-
Mix all of the above, and then add your boneless, skinless chicken thighs and let them marinate ideally overnight, if not at least for 3-4 hours in your fridge.
-
When you're ready throw the chicken pieces on the BBQ (discard the remaining marinade), and enjoy!
