Green Goddess Grilled Chicken Thighs
Chicken:
2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs
Kosher salt & freshly cracked black pepper
Vegetable or avocado oil (for grilling)
Green Goddess Marinade:
¼ cup parsley leaves
¼ cup fresh chives
¼ cup fresh basil leaves
¼ cup fresh dill
¼ cup distilled white vinegar
1½ tablespoons lemon juice (or additional vinegar)
½ cup mayonnaise
1 garlic clove
1½ teaspoons honey
⅓ cup extra virgin olive oil
Kosher salt & black pepper, to taste
Make the Marinade:
Add herbs, vinegar, lemon juice, mayonnaise, garlic, and honey to a tall jar. Blend with an immersion blender until smooth. Stream in the olive oil and blend again. Season with salt and pepper.
Marinate the Chicken:
Separate the marinade — reserve about ⅓ cup for marinating, keeping the rest for sauce. Pat chicken thighs dry, season with salt and pepper, and coat with marinade. Marinate 1–8 hours.
Grill:
Preheat grill to 400°F. Oil the grates lightly. Grill chicken for 5–6 minutes per side, until internal temp reaches 165°F. Let rest 5 minutes.
Serve:
Drizzle grilled thighs with reserved green goddess sauce.
