In a blender, combine the garlic cloves, olive oil, lime juice, cilantro, salt, black pepper, and oregano. Blend until smooth and well combined. Set aside.

Prepare the Mojo de Ajo Sauce

Place the chicken thighs in a large bowl and pour half of the mojo de ajo sauce over them. Make sure the chicken is well coated. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or overnight for the best flavor.

Marinate the Chicken

Preheat your grill or oven to 400°F (200°C). Remove the chicken from the marinade, letting any excess drip off. Grill or bake the chicken for about 25-30 minutes, turning occasionally, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the skin is crispy.

Cook the Chicken

Once cooked, serve the chicken with the remaining mojo de ajo sauce drizzled on top. Garnish with additional cilantro if desired.
