Instructions
Preheat the grill for medium-high heat, about 350°F - 375°F. Sprinkle the chicken generously with spices on both sides of each piece.
Cook the chicken over the heat for 4 minutes per side, until the pieces turn golden and grill marks appear. The lid should be closed throughout the cooking process.
Flip the pieces once more and turn heat to medium-low, about 300°F, for 3-5 minutes, or until the chicken has cooked through and the internal temp is 165°F.
Let the chicken rest for at least 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
Notes
For boneless, skinless chicken thighs: Cook the meat 6 minutes on each side. Check for doneness. Cook an additional 2-4 minutes, only as needed.
