325.2
Ingredients:
- 200g boneless Chicken thighs
- 50g cucumber, peeled lengthwise
Grilled Chicken Marinade:
- 1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil (7g)
- 1/2 teaspoon fresh oregano, rosemary, thyme, or sage, finely chopped (or use a combo)
- 3g zest from a lemon and save the lemon for grilling/ juicing.
- 1 garlic clove, finely minced
- 1 teaspoon cornflour
- 1/4 teaspoon chili flakes
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions:
- Make the marinade: Mix marinade ingredients in a small bowl. Add chicken and massage to coat all sides well. Marinate for minimum 30 minutes, few hours, overnight, or even a few days.
- Grill: Preheat grill to medium-high. Place the chicken on the grill. Close the grill lid and cook for 5-6 minutes (or until deep golden grill marks appear) before flipping. Cook the other side, for 5-7 minutes, and lower heat or move to a cooler spot until the thickest part of the meat registers at 160F and meat is no longer pink, and the meat looks opaque. Let it rest 5-10 minutes before serving.
- Serve: Place the grilled chicken in a bowl along with the cucumber.
- Drizzle with lime juice and serve warm.
