Introduction:

Using only chicken thighs and smokehouse maple seasoning from Costco, this recipe highlights the beauty of simplicity. Grilled to perfection on the Arteflame, these chicken thighs are juicy, tender, and bursting with flavor. Ideal for any occasion, this recipe will become a go-to favorite for its ease and delicious results.

Ingredients:

• 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs / Costco Boneless Chicken Thighs
• 2 tablespoons smokehouse maple seasoning from Costco

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Grill: Preheat your Arteflame grill to get it ready for grilling.
2. Prepare the Chicken: Rinse the chicken thighs and pat them dry with paper towels. Sprinkle the smokehouse maple seasoning evenly over both sides of each chicken thigh, pressing it into the skin to ensure it adheres well.  NOTE: If you're using Costco boneless chicken thighs, season both sides.
3. Grill the Chicken: Place the chicken thighs on the center grill grate for a quick sear.  Then move them to the flat cooktop griddle. Grill for 2-3 minutes more per side, or until the skin is crispy and the internal temperature reaches 150°F.  Don't overcook them!  Remember, the thighs will continue cooking even after you remove them from the grill.
4. Rest and Serve: Remove the chicken thighs from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring the meat remains moist and flavorful. Serve immediately.

Tips:

• You can also use boneless chicken thighs (from Costco).  These work fantastic on the grill.  They come out juicy and full of flavor.  If you prefer boneless, skinless chicken thighs, reduce the cooking time by a few minutes.
• You can season the chicken thighs as soon as you start the grill.  The seasoning will flavor the chicken meat better this way.
• Pair these chicken thighs with a simple side salad or roasted vegetables for a complete meal.
