Salt Grilled Chicken Thighs Recipes

SIMPLE SALT-AND-PEPPER GRILLED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat grill to medium-high. (If you are using a charcoal grill, coals are ready when you can hold your hand 5 inches above grill for just 3 to 4 seconds.)
• Combine salt and pepper. Rub chicken with mixture, covering all sides and shaking off excess. (You may not need all of the mixture.) Let stand at room temperature 30 minutes.
• Place chicken on grill, skin side down. Close cover, and grill 8 minutes. Flip chicken, and close cover. Grill until chicken is cooked through, about 15 minutes more.
• Transfer chicken to a plate, and let rest 15 minutes. Serve with bread salad.

HERB SEA SALT-RUBBED CHICKEN THIGHS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425˚F (220˚C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set a wire rack inside.
• Pat the chicken thighs dry with a paper towel. Generously season the chicken on both sides with the herb salt, rubbing underneath the skin. Let sit for 15-20 minutes to draw out the moisture from the chicken skin, which will result in crispier chicken.
• After resting, pat the chicken thighs dry once more to remove any excess moisture. Drizzle the olive oil under the skin and rub into the chicken.
• Place the chicken thighs skin-side up on the wire rack. Bake for 30 minutes, until the skin is crispy and the internal temperature reaches 155-160˚F (68-71˚C).
• Let the thighs rest for 15 minutes to bring the internal temperature to 165˚F (75˚C) and to let the juices settle.
• Enjoy!
