The BEST keto chicken thighs recipe featuring a delicious chicken thigh marinade that is so simple! Perfect for family gatherings, summer BBQs, and more!

Ingredients

  • 6-8 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup coconut aminos
  • 2 tbsp dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp Frank's Red Hot (or hot sauce of choice)
  • 2 cloves minced garlic
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes

Directions

  1. 1

    Combine all of the healthy chicken marinade ingredients in a bowl and whisk well. Pour the chicken thigh marinade over the chicken thighs in a large baking dish or zip-lock plastic bag. Let them marinate for at least 1 hour. 

  2. 2

    Heat your grill over medium high heat. Add the chicken to the grill, skin side up, and discard any remaining chicken thigh marinade. Cook for 5 minutes, then flip. Cook for an additional 5 minutes, then flip again. Continue this pattern, flipping back and forth, until they have been cooking for 25 minutes or reach an internal temperature of 175.

  3. 3

    Remove the chicken from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes. Serve and enjoy!

  4. 4

    Preheat your oven to 400. Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper. Place the marinated chicken thighs on the sheet. Bake for 35-40 minutes for bone-in, skin-on, or 25-30 minutes for boneless. Keep an eye on them - the internal temp should be at least 165 degrees. Remove from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes. Enjoy!
