Grilled chicken thighs

This post may contain affiliate links. Tender, juicy chicken thighs are marinated in chili powder, cumin, garlic, salt, cilantro, and lime juice, grilled to perfection and topped grilled chicken thighs an optional honey-lime drizzle. I think I’ve mentioned before how I’ve recently made the switch to team grilled chicken chicken thighs.

I don’t know why it took me so long but now that I’ve discovered how tender, juicy, and meaty this cut of chicken can be, I want to try it all the ways. This cilantro lime chicken does not disappoint. Tonight I’m going to try it on tacos with all the toppings — can’t wait! Here’s How You Make It  Ingredients Boneless Chicken Thighs — You’ll be hard-pressed to find bone-in chicken thighs, and anyway boneless just cooks so much easier and is easy to cut right off the grill. Olive oil —  I use extra virgin olive oil but you can use whatever kind of high-quality olive oil you have.

Chili powder — Any brand chili powder is fine in this grilled chicken thighs marinade. Cumin — The same goes for cumin, I use a store-brand cumin or whatever’s on sale honestly. Garlic — You can use jarred, minced garlic, mince your own garlic, or use garlic powder on these grilled chicken thighs. Salt — I like fine grain kosher salt but you can use any fine salt that you have. Cilantro — Fresh cilantro on this grilled boneless chicken thigh recipe is key!
