Description

There’s something magical about the sizzle of chicken thighs hitting a hot pan, especially when they’re marinated in a vibrant chimichurri sauce. This recipe is a delightful fusion of flavors that will transport your taste buds straight to a sun-drenched patio in Argentina, with a little Texan twist, of course.


Ingredients

fresh chicken thighs

fresh parsley

garlic

red wine vinegar

olive oil

red pepper flakes

lime juice (optional)

smoked paprika (optional)

cayenne pepper (optional)


Instructions

1. Combine chimichurri ingredients in a blender.

2. Pour the sauce over the chicken thighs and marinate for at least an hour.

3. Grill, bake, or pan-sear the marinated chicken thighs until cooked through.

4. Ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.

Notes

For best results, marinate the chicken overnight.

Use a resealable plastic bag for marination to ensure even coating.

Serve with a simple green salad or roasted vegetables for a light meal.
