  2. Marinate: Add the 2 pounds skinless boneless chicken thighs to the marinade. Seal the bag and refrigerate for at least an hour up to overnight.

  3. Cook: Heat the grill over medium-high heat. You can use a cast iron grill pan or your outdoor BBQ grill. Spray the grill with olive oil spray to prevent sticking. Cook for 8-10 minutes on each side. Time will vary, but flip when nice grill marks appear. Cook on second side until cooked through and internal temperature reads 165°F.

  4. Serve immediately. Garnish with cilantro. Enjoy!
