Lemon garlic chicken thighs
Ingredients
- ½ cup chicken stock
- 2 tablespoon olive oil
- 3 tablespoon lemon juice freshly squeezed
- 2 garlic minced
- 2 Dijon mustard
- 1 oregano, dried
- ½ thyme, dried
- 1 chicken thighs
- Salt and ground black pepper to taste
- 1 ½ vegetable oil
Method
Mix the chicken stock, lemon juice, lemon zest, olive oil, garlic, Dijon mustard, thyme, oregano, 1 ½ teaspoon of salt and 1 ½ teaspoon of pepper in a medium-sized bowl.
In either a large bowl or ziplock bag, mix the chicken with the chicken stock mixture. Leave to marinate for at least 2 hours to overnight. Remove the chicken from the marinade.
When you’re ready to cook, heat the oil in a cast-iron grill pan over medium to high heat. Add the chicken in batches in a single layer and cook until thoroughly cooked and golden brown. This should take around 4 to 5 minutes on each side. The internal temperature should be 74 degrees Celsius.
Serve immediately.
