Ingredients:
- 4 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
- Butter for grilling
Optional Seasonings:
- Smokehouse maple seasoning
- Lemon pepper seasoning
- Garlic herb seasoning
- Cajun seasoning
- Teriyaki marinade
Instructions:
- Preheat the Grill: Fire up your Arteflame grill to get it ready for grilling.
- Prepare the Chicken: Rinse the chicken thighs and pat them dry with paper towels. Choose your preferred seasoning and sprinkle it evenly over both sides of each chicken thigh, pressing it into the skin to ensure it adheres well.
- Sear the Chicken: Place the chicken thighs on the center grill grate for a quick sear to lock in the juices. Sear each side for about 2-3 minutes.
- Grill on the Flat Cooktop: Move the seared chicken thighs to the flat cooktop griddle. Grill for an additional 5-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 150°F. Remember, the thighs will continue cooking even after you remove them from the grill.
- 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 use boneless chicken thighs if you prefer. Adjust the cooking time slightly to avoid overcooking.
- Season the chicken thighs as soon as you start the grill to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat better.
- Pair these chicken thighs with a simple side salad or roasted vegetables for a complete meal.
