Marinade

For Grilling

Method

Marinating the Chicken

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a large bowl, combine BBQ sauce, olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Add the chicken thighs to the marinade, ensuring each piece is well coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best results.

Grilling the Chicken

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F to 400°F).

  2. 4

    Prepare the Grill Grate

    Brush the grill grate with grilling oil to prevent sticking.

  3. 5

    Grill the Chicken

    Remove chicken thighs from the marinade, allowing excess marinade to drip off. Place the chicken on the grill. Cook for 6-8 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F, basting with additional BBQ sauce during the last few minutes of grilling.

  4. 6

    Rest and Serve

    Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired, then serve warm.
