Marinate the Chicken
Add the boneless, skinless chicken thighs to the marinade, ensuring each piece is well coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight for maximum flavor.
Cooking

Grill the Chicken
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Remove the marinated chicken from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes. Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the chicken has nice grill marks.

Cook the Rice
While the chicken is grilling, rinse the basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a pot, combine 2 cups of rice with 4 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for about 15 minutes or until all the water is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for another 5 minutes.
