Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 pieces Chicken thighs, skinless and boneless
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 cup Low carb BBQ sauce
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, about 400°F (200°C).
In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, smoked paprika, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels. Rub both sides of the chicken thighs with olive oil and then coat evenly with the spice mixture.
Place the chicken thighs on the grill, skin side down. Close the lid and grill for about 10 minutes.
Flip the chicken thighs and brush the top side with the low carb BBQ sauce. Grill for another 10 minutes.
Turn the chicken thighs again, brushing the other side with more BBQ sauce. Grill for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Remove the chicken from the grill and let rest for 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring moist and tender chicken.
Drizzle the apple cider vinegar over the chicken thighs and sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.
Serve the BBQ chicken thighs with a side salad or steamed vegetables for a delicious and balanced low carb meal.
