Grilled Lemon Chicken

<<

Grilled Lemon Chicken is made with boneless chicken thighs and marinated with flavorful lemon, thyme and olive oil. Once marinated, this lowfat chicken recipe is cooked and ready to serve in only 10-15 minutes.

Ingredients:

  • 1 tsp. grated lemon zest
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh lemon juice (about 6 lemons)
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh thyme (or 1 tbsp. dried thyme)
  • 1-2 tbsp. olive oil (1 tbsp. is enough but I prefer a bit more)
  • 2 1/2 tbsp. honey
  • 16 skinless, boneless chicken thighs (about 3 lbs.)
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/4 tsp. black pepper
  • Cooking spray
Place lemon zest, lemon juice, thyme, olive oil and honey in a large ziplock bag. Add chicken and seal. Make sure to shake bag around so that chicken is coated with marinade. Refrigerate for two hours and turn bag over after one hour.

Turn on broiler or prepare grill. Remove chicken from bag and discard marinade. Add salt and pepper to chicken. Spray broiling pan or grill rack with cooking spray so that chicken will not stick. Cook about 5 minutes on each side or until juices run clear and chicken is done.

Note: You may substitute a few of the lemons for limes, if you love the taste of lime as much as I do.

Serves: 8 (2 pieces per person).
