I came up with this grilled chicken thighs recipe by accident when I ended up with way more chicken thighs than guests I had invited.

The long marination time is key to this incredibly tender and delicious recipe. I like to prepare these grilled chicken thighs in my Cast Iron Grill Pan, or over an open fire or coal bed

Chicken thighs tend to flare up over an open fire, especially with the skin on so be prepared to adjust them frequently on the grill rack.

For an equally delicious but smokier chicken recipe, try my Easy "Smoked" Barbeque Chicken

Ingredients

8 chicken thighs, skin on, and bone in
1 cup buttermilk
½ cup soy sauce
4 teaspoons sugar
6-8 cloves of fresh garlic, minced
1 large yellow onion, sliced
1-2 diced jalapenos

Directions

Combine the buttermilk, soy sauce, sugar, onions, jalapeno, and garlic until blended.
Place the chicken in a resealable bag, then add the onions and marinade.
Shake the bag to coat the chicken thoroughly, then marinate for 12-24 hours, turning 2-3 times.
Grill over the fire or hot coals until the internal temperature reaches 165 F.
