Ingredients
  

  • 2 # of Chicken Thighs
  • 2 Tbsp Paprika
  • 2 Tbsp Creole Seasoning
  • 1 tsp Kosher Salt
  • 4 Tbsp fresh parsley minced (1.5 Tbsp dried)
  • 4 cloves of garlic minced
  • ~½ cup olive oil

Instructions
 

  • If your chicken has skin on, remove the skin and trim any excess fat or gristle from your pieces. Place the chicken in a Ziploc bag or glass bowl.
  • Mix your marinade together. Add enough oil to carry the seasonings, but not too much to make it runny.
  • Add the marinade to the chicken. Massage the marinade into the chicken with your hands.
  • Marinade for at least 30 minutes and preferably 4 hours or more.
  • Start and preheat your grill.
  • Place the chicken over direct heat to brown, and then move to indirect heat to finish cooking.
  • Check the temperature in your chicken as it firms up, don’t go past 165 degrees.
  • Serve as is with rice or pasta, or cut up and serve in fajitas.
