Method

Marinade Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and oregano. Whisk until well mixed.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Add the chicken thighs to the marinade and ensure they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Prepare the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using a charcoal grill, ensure the coals are hot and glowing.

  2. 4

    Grill the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it on the grill. Cook for 6-7 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

  3. 5

    Cook the Sides

    While the chicken is grilling, boil the corn on the cob in salted water for about 10 minutes until tender. For the French fries, cook according to package instructions or fry them until golden brown.

Dipping Sauce Preparation

  1. 6

    Mix the Dipping Sauce

    In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, peri-peri sauce, lemon juice, and garlic powder. Stir until smooth and well combined.
