Description

A delightful dish featuring juicy chicken thighs paired with a refreshing peach salsa, perfect for summer grilling.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 chicken thighs
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 peaches, diced
  • 1/2 red onion, diced
  • 1 jalapeño, minced
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat the grill over medium-high heat. Make sure your grill grates are clean and well-oiled to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix together the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl to create a flavorful marinade for the chicken.
  3. Coat the chicken thighs evenly with the olive oil mixture, ensuring all sides are well-covered.
  4. Place the chicken thighs on the grill and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side until reaching an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
  5. Combine the diced peaches, red onion, jalapeño, lime juice, and chopped cilantro in another bowl and mix well.
  6. Serve the grilled chicken thighs topped with the peach salsa for a perfect summer dish.

Notes

For extra flavor, consider marinating the chicken thighs for a few hours. Allow them to rest after grilling for juiciness.
