A fun way to cook chicken thighs is by grilling them. Let us discuss one or two ways of how to cook chicken thighs on the grill.
What we will be needing are, of course, a grill, a small mixing bowl, pepper and salt to taste, a tablespoon of curry powder, four cloves of minced garlic, two tablespoons of olive oil, half finely chopped red onion, a cup of butter at room temperature, and twelve chicken thighs.
The first step on how to cook chicken on the grill is to preheat the grill. The next step is to combine in a small bowl the curry powder, garlic, onion, and butter, and make sure to mix such ingredients well.
The next step is to coat the thighs using olive oil. Make sure not to forget seasoning the chicken thighs with pepper and salt.
Under the skin of each thigh, make sure to place approximately a tablespoon of the butter mixture. After doing all these steps, place the coated chicken on the hot grill but make sure that the buttered side is facing upwards.
The thighs must be grilled with medium heat. Occasionally, it must be turned until they are done. The approximate time for grilling chicken thighs is ten minutes.
We have some tips on how to cook chicken on the grill. First, before putting the it on the grill, make sure that the charcoal are arranged in the center of the grill.
Second tip is to coat the grill with olive oil. When the charcoal is already hot, the grill may already be put in place and allow it to warm for another five minutes. The importance of allowing the olive oil-coated grill to heat up is that it will allow the chicken to partially sear when placed. This will allow the flavor and juice of the chicken to stay in the thighs.
Another tip is to make sure that the meat is not placed on the center of the grill. The chicken thighs must be placed around the perimeter of the grill and must not receive direct heat. This is an important advice on how to cook chicken on the grill because allowing indirect heat to do the cooking will result to juicy grilled chicken.
