This zingy Apple Cider Thyme Grilled Chicken recipe is delicious and full of flavor. This is actually a really fun dish to make as you get to shake everything up in a ziplock bag or tupperware container before marinating it in the refrigerator. When you are ready to cook it, heat the grill and cook through. Amazing tender chicken.
To make this delicious grilled chicken dish, start by preparing the onion and garlic.

Shake everything together until well combined and then add in the chicken thighs. Turn the bag over so the chicken is well coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Cook the chicken over a medium high grill until it develops a charred crust. Flip and continue to grill until cooked through. Serve garnished with fresh thyme and lemon slices.
