About the Recipe
The flavor of anything when it hits a grill is just so enticing. The char, the smoke, I love everything about it. I'm so happy for warmer weather!
Ingredients
3lbs chicken thighs, boneless, skinless
1/4C vegetable oil
Â
Spice Rub:
1Tbsp cumin, ground
1Tbsp smoked paprika
1Tsp garlic, granulated
1Tsp onion powder
1Tsp coriander, ground
1/2Tsp black pepper, ground
1Tbsp salt
Â
Green Sauce:
1 bunch cilantro, most of the stem included (I trim the bottom)
1 bunch parsley, most of the stem included (I trim the bottom)
1 bunch green onion, green parts only
3 garlic cloves
1-2 jalapeños, chopped (depends on the spice level you want)
2 big handfuls spinach
4 limes, juiced
1Tsp salt
1C olive oil or vegetable oil
1C mayonnaise*
Â
*This sauce works with mayonnaise, sour cream, or Greek yogurt. I would use whatever I had on hand!

Preparation
1: To prepare the chicken, whisk together all the spices. Add the chicken to a bowl, pour over oil and spice mixture and combine to marinate. I like a minimum of 30 minutes to marinade but you can go for a couple hours in the refrigerator if you have the time.
3: To prepare the green sauce, add ingredients except mayonnaise to a blender. Blend until smooth, then add in the mayo and blend again. Store in the refrigerator.
4: Grill chicken over medium high heat until cooked to 165 degrees. Enjoy!
