Soy Marinated Chicken Thighs

I was a bit of a chicken snob until recently.  I only bought the boneless, skinless chicken breasts.  But recently I've come to discover the rest of the bird- mainly the thighs.  They're a bit more fatty, but once you trim them the flavor is delicious and they grill up really nicely.  Here's one to try out before it's time to put the grill away for the winter.

INGREDIENTS

• 3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons extravirgin olive oil
• 2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
• 8 (2-ounce) skinless, boneless chicken thighs
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• Cooking spray

DIRECTIONS

Combine first 5 ingredients in a large zip-top plastic bag; seal. Marinate in refrigerator 4 hours or up to 24 hours, turning occasionally.

Prepare grill to medium-high heat.

Remove chicken from bag; discard marinade. Place chicken on grill rack coated with cooking spray; grill 3 minutes on each side or until done.

VERDICT

Easy ingredients for marinating, quick grilling time, and a great taste are all reasons to try this on your grill.   Serve with veggies, pasta, or Guarenteed Crispy Sweet Potato Fries like we did.
