Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic, oregano, paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper. Mix well to create the marinade.
-
Place the chicken thighs in the marinade, ensuring they are evenly coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
-
Preheat the grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat. Make sure the grates are clean and lightly oiled to prevent sticking.

Once the grill is hot, place the marinated chicken thighs on the grates. Cook for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the chicken is cooked through.
-
While grilling, baste the chicken thighs with any remaining marinade to keep them moist and flavorful.
-
Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving to lock in the juices.
-
Garnish the Light For Chicken Thighs with fresh parsley for a pop of color and added freshness. Serve hot and enjoy!
