Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp olive oil, 2 tbsp honey, 1 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary, 3 minced garlic cloves, 1 1/2 tsp salt, 1 tsp black pepper, and 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice to form the marinade.
  2. Step 2: Place 6 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs in a large resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over them; seal and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 4 hours.
  3. Step 3: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F). Remove chicken from marinade and let excess drip off.
  4. Step 4: Grill the chicken thighs skin-side down for 6-7 minutes until the skin is crisp and caramelized, then flip and grill for another 6-7 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  5. Step 5: Remove from grill and let rest for 5 minutes before serving to allow juices to redistribute.
