Description
Delicious and tender grilled chicken thighs marinated in a flavorful mixture of canola oil, apple cider vinegar, garlic, and spices.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4–6 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
- 1/2 cup canola oil
- 4 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 4 tablespoons garlic
- 1 ½ tablespoons Kosher salt
- 1 ½ teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
- Whisk together canola oil, apple cider vinegar, garlic, salt, and pepper together in a small mixing bowl until the marinade emulsifies. Alternatively, you can shake all the ingredients together in a sealed jar.
- Pound chicken thighs until they are an even thickness and pat dry with paper towels.
- Place in a Ziplock freezer bag, pour marinade into the bag with the chicken and move around until chicken is coated in the marinade. Squeeze the air out and seal the bag.
- Marinate in the fridge for 30 minutes to 3 hours.
- Remove chicken from fridge 30-40 minutes before grilling.
- When ready to grill, remove chicken from bag and discard marinade. Grill over medium-high heat (400–425°F) for 4-6 minutes per side or until internal temperature reaches 165℉.
- Wrap chicken in foil and allow to rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Notes
- For best results, marinate the chicken thighs for the full 3 hours.
- Let the chicken rest after grilling for juicier meat.
