Mediterranean Chicken Recipe (Grilled Chicken Recipe!)

By The Mediterranean Dish

Ingredients

Instructions

1. In a food processor, blend the minced garlic, chopped dill, Greek yogurt, olive oil, lemon juice and cayenne (if using) until smooth and thick. Taste and add kosher salt if needed. Transfer to a container and refrigerate.
2. In a small bowl, mix the 10 minced garlic cloves, paprika, allspice, nutmeg, cardamom and 3 tbsp of the olive oil. Pat the chicken thighs dry and rub each with this mixture.
3. In a large dish with sides, spread the sliced red onion, lemon juice and the remaining 2 tbsp olive oil. Place the chicken on the onions and toss so it is coated in the oil and lemon juice.
4. If you have time, cover and refrigerate the chicken for 2 to 4 hours.
5. Heat a gas grill to medium-high. Place the chicken thighs on the grill, cover and cook for 5 minutes.
6. Turn the chicken over, cover and grill for another 3 to 5 minutes, until the thickest part reaches 165 degrees.
7. Rest the chicken for about 5 minutes before serving.
