Directions

1. Make the marinade: Add all the marinade ingredients together to a blender or food processor and blend until smooth.
2. Marinate the chicken: Place the chicken in a large bowl and pour the marinade over the chicken. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate for at least 2 hours to overnight.
3. Preheat grill pan: Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat then add the vegetable oil and heat. If using an outdoor grill, preheat it to 350F.
4. Cook the chicken: Cook the chicken thighs in batches, for about 3 to 5 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the thighs. If using the outdoor grill, grill the chicken covered for about 20 to 30 minutes, flipping once halfway through. The chicken is cooked through when an instant-read thermometer registers at 165F to 175F when inserted in the thickest part of each thigh.
