Lime-Tarragon Grilled Chicken

Lime-Tarragon Grilled Chicken

A lime-tarragon marinade for juicy flavorful chicken pieces – moist and delicious. I like to marinate the pieces and cook them on the grill for a nice summer meal.

Ingredients

  • ½ cup olive oil
  • ½ cup fresh lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons chopped onion
  • 2 teaspoons dried tarragon
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon hot sauce
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 pounds bone-in chicken thighs

Directions

Step 1
Place olive oil, lime juice, onion, tarragon, salt, and hot sauce into a large, resealable plastic bag; shake to mix. Add chicken thighs, coat with marinade, squeeze out air, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.

Step 2
Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil grate. Remove chicken from marinade, and shake off excess. Discard remaining marinade. Season with salt and pepper.

Step 3
Grill chicken for about 30 minutes, or until no longer pink in the center. Chicken thighs don't dry out easily, so don't be afraid to cook them a bit longer if needed.
