Season grilled chicken thighs with a Mediterranean spice blend called zaatar that's composed of sesame seeds, thyme, marjoram and sumac. Look for it in the spice section of your supermarket or in a Middle Eastern market. Ingredients:
1/4 cup olive oil |
2 tablespoons zaatar |
2 tablespoons lemon juice |
1 teaspoon lemon zest |
1 teaspoon minced garlic |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
4 chicken thighs (6 to 8 oz. each) |
1 lemon, cut into 4 wedges |
8 green onions |
Directions:
1. Whisk together oil, zaatar, lemon juice, zest, garlic, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add chicken and turn to coat.
2. Heat grill to medium (350° to 450°). Grill chicken, skin side down, until browned, 5 to 8 minutes; watch for flare-ups and move chicken to a cooler spot if needed. Turn chicken and grill until cooked through, about 4 minutes.
3. Grill lemon wedges and onions in last few minutes, turning once, just until grill marks appear. Serve with chicken.
