Step 1

Add all ingredients except chicken in a small bowl. Whisk to combine.

Step 2

Place chicken in a large gallon size ziploc bag and add the marinade. Close the bag, massage together to coat all the chicken and refrigerate for 2 hours or up to overnight.

Step 3

Remove the chicken from the marinade and shake off any excess. Discard marinade and cook chicken using one of the methods below.

Step 4

Preheat grill to medium heat (350°F-375°F) and prepare for indirect grilling. This means light the burners (or light your charcoal) on one half of the grill, and leave them off on the other half. This creates a zone of direct heat and a zone of indirect heat.

Step 5

Grease the preheated grill grates to prevent sticking by wiping them down with a folded paper towel that's been soaked in vegetable oil.

Step 6

Grill chicken skin side down over direct heat for about 8 to 10 minutes with the lid closed as much as possible, until the skin is crispy and golden. Flip chicken over, move to indirect heat and grill for 15 to 20 minutes, until the meat is firm and the internal temperature registers 165°F. (Don't have an instant-read thermometer? Here's the one I recommend.)

Step 7

Serve cilantro lime chicken with freshly squeezed lime juice and a pinch of chopped cilantro if desired.

Step 8

Preheat oven to 400°F. Place chicken on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or foil for easy cleanup.

Step 9

Bake in oven for 30-40 minutes depending on the thickness of the chicken. The internal temperature should register at least 165°F on an instant-read thermometer.

Step 10

Serve cilantro lime chicken with freshly squeezed lime juice and a pinch of chopped cilantro if desired.

Step 11

Preheat oven to 425°F. In a large cast-iron skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of cooking oil over medium-high heat.

Step 12

Place chicken thighs in the skillet skin-side down and cook for 8-9 minutes until the skin is brown and crispy.

Step 13

Flip chicken over and transfer skillet to the oven. Bake for 15-20 minutes, until the internal temperature registers 165°F on an instant-read thermometer.

Step 14

Serve cilantro lime chicken with freshly squeezed lime juice and a pinch of chopped cilantro if desired.
