How to make it

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, fresh herbs, salt, and pepper.
  2. Place the chicken thigh in a shallow dish or sealable plastic bag.
  3. Pour most of the lemon herb mixture over the chicken, reserving a little for later.
  4. Marinate the chicken in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, but no longer than 2 hours.
  5. Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat.
  6. Brush the grill with a bit of oil.
  7. Grill the chicken for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F).
  8. Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
  9. Brush with the reserved lemon herb mixture before serving, if desired.
