Ingredients

  • 3 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken thighs
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoon sesame seed oil
  • 2 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1 medium lime (juiced)
  • 1 tablespoon sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper
  • 1 teaspoon ginger powder
  • 2 cloves garlic (crushed)
  • 1 single packet Truvia
  • ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)

Instructions

  • Defrost boneless skinless thighs if necessary. Rinse and pat dry with paper towels then place the chicken into a large bowl. Whisk the marinade ingredients in a small bowl or measuring cup.
  • Pour chicken marinade over the chicken thighs, making sure all the pieces are covered. Marinade in the fridge for at least two hours, or overnight. 
  • Grill chicken over medium flames for approximately 5 minutes. Brush with excess marinade before flipping to the other side and grilling for an additional 5 minutes or the chicken's internal temperature reaches 165°F at the thickest part.

Notes

  • You can also use chicken with skin if you're not concerned about the added fat and calories.
  • Although you can trim the excess fat off the chicken thighs, I like to leave it on because it adds more flavor.
  • Both a charcoal grill and a gas grill can be used to grill the chicken thighs, however, charcoal does add a better flavor.
  • If using a thermometer or a probe, make sure to grill boneless skinless chicken thighs until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  • Store the grilled boneless chicken thighs in the refrigerator for up to a week in an airtight container.
  • The chicken can be reheated in the microwave or sliced and added to your favorite salad recipe!
