8 ingredients

1. 8 chicken thighs
2. 1/4 cups olive oil
3. 1/4 cups lemon juice
4. 4 garlic cloves
5. 2 tbsps herbs i used parsley
6. 1 tsp paprika
7. 2 tsps salt
8. 1 tsp pepper

Instructions

1. Whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, herbs of your choice, paprika, salt and pepper then pour over chicken thighs.
2. Allow to marinade for at least 30 minutes but up to 24 hours covered in the fridge. 
3. Preheat your grill for 15 minutes, medium to medium-low heat. It's a good idea to have a cool spot on your grill where you can move the thighs if they brown too quickly. Cook the thighs for 10-12 minutes per side.
4. For the last 5-10 minutes of cooking I turn the heat up and allow the thighs to char a little, making sure the skin is nice and crisp.
5. Remove the thighs from the grill and allow to rest for at least 5 minutes before serving.
