Ingredients

Instructions

0 of 5 done
  1. Step 1

    Whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, cilantro, garlic, cumin, salt and pepper in a large mixing bowl.

  2. Step 2

    Add the chicken thighs and toss until well coated. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for a minimum of 2 hours or overnight.

  3. Step 3

    Remove the chicken from the refrigerator about 30 minutes prior to cooking it so bring to room temperature.

  4. Step 4

    Preheat a grill to medium-high heat (about 425 degrees) and oil the grates to prevent the chicken from sticking.

  5. Step 5

    Remove the chicken from the marinade and let the excess drip off for a few seconds (or lightly shake it off). Grill the chicken for 5–7 minutes per side until nicely charred and a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh registers 175 degrees. Remove from heat, cover loosely with foil, and allow to rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
