by Rebecca August 30, 2021

Prep Time: 10 mins | Cook Time: 1 min| Marinating Time: 1 hr | Total Time: 1 hr 11 min | Servings: 6

Chicken is a staple at home. I have countless recipes for chicken that I make every time. My kids love chicken more than anything! So a good marinade is a must. Thus, this amazing Chicken Thigh Marinade. Made with a combination of pantry ingredients, make sure to marinate the chicken for at least an hour, preferably overnight, so the marinade will sip into the chicken.

This simple marinade is a savoury blend of fresh herbs, garlic, olive oil, lemon, and seasonings. Perfect to use for grilled, boiled, or baked chicken thighs that guarantee the best result always! If you are like me who’s constantly looking for new and interesting ways to prepare chicken, this is a must-try!

Chicken thighs are one of my fave cuts because they are inexpensive and are more tender and juicy compared to chicken breasts. Use this simple but flavorful marinade to dress up your chicken thighs, and easily and inexpensively put together a meal for your family!

INGREDIENTS

1/2 c. olive oil

2 tbsp brown sugar

3 tbsp soy sauce

1 1/2 tsp lemon zest

1 tbsp fresh parsley leaves chopped, plus more for garnish

1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves chopped

1 tsp salt

1/2 tsp pepper

2 tsp minced garlic

How to make Chicken Thigh Marinade
