Chimichurri Chicken Thighs

There’s something magical about a meal that feels both fresh and comforting. That’s exactly what these chimichurri chicken thighs deliver: crispy, juicy chicken paired with a bright, herby sauce that wakes up your taste buds and feels like sunshine on a plate.

After coming home from a long day (or from traveling—because you know I always come back craving simple, wholesome food), this is the kind of recipe that hits the spot. It’s easy, high in protein, naturally gluten-free, and the flavors are bold enough to make you feel like you’re out at a restaurant—but better, because it’s your kitchen.

Ingredients:

• Boneless skinless chicken thighs

• olive oil

• S&P

• My Cilantro Chimichurri

Directions:

1. Seasoning is non-negotiable (we’re not eating pale chicken over here). Drizzle your thighs with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

2. Pour a generous amount of chimichurri on top of the chicken and massage it in. Let the chicken marinte for at least 30 minutes (the longer you let it marinate, the deeper and richer the flavor will be).

   

   
   

3. Now it's grill time! Lay down the chicken and let it get that perfect char

4. Once the chicken is cooked all the way through, pull off the grill and enjoy!
