Easy and Flavorful Grilled Chicken

Easy and Flavorful Grilled Chicken with spices and avocado oil is your go-to for a healthy, quick dinner that sizzles with taste. Marinate those juicy thighs and drumsticks in a blend of garlic, red pepper paste, seven spice, and avocado oil for at least three hours. The higher smoke point of avocado oil makes all the difference, giving you perfectly grilled, tender chicken every time.

The Recipe

  1. 1

    Add crushed garlic, red pepper paste, vinegar, a squeeze of lemon juice, black pepper, salt, seven spice, paprika, smoked paprika, onion powder, and cumin to the chicken.

  2. 2

    Use avocado oil instead of olive oil for marinating the chicken, as it has a higher smoke point.

    Marinate the chicken in the refrigerator for at least three hours.

  4. 4

    Grill the chicken until almost done.

  5. 5

    Add Greek seasoning and lemon pepper, or oregano, on top of the chicken for a dry rub effect just before finishing.

Helpful Notes

  • ◈Using avocado oil helps prevent the chicken from blackening too much on the grill.
