Description

Juicy grilled chicken thighs topped with a refreshing peach salsa, perfect for cozy family dinners or gatherings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 chicken thighs
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 peaches, diced
  • 1/4 red onion, diced
  • 1 jalapeño, minced
  • 2 tablespoons cilantro, chopped
  • Juice of 1 lime

Instructions

  1. Season the chicken thighs with olive oil, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper in a large bowl.
  2. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  3. Grill the chicken thighs for about 6-7 minutes on each side, ensuring they reach an internal temperature of 165°F.
  4. Prepare the peach salsa by mixing diced peaches, red onion, jalapeño, cilantro, and lime juice in a bowl.
  5. Let the chicken rest for about 5 minutes after grilling.
  6. Serve the grilled chicken topped with the peach salsa and enjoy warm.

Notes

For extra juiciness, opt for skin-on chicken thighs. Allowing the chicken to rest after grilling is essential for juicy meat.
