When life gives you lemons (or limes) …grill them! The heat deepens the flavours, loosens up the juices, and adds a bright finish to this outrageously good grilled chicken. The sweet Canadian maple & garlicky goodness will have no singing “Oh Canada” in no time.
Ingredients
- 1 lime
- 1 lemon
- 1⁄4 cup Oh Canada Dry Glaze or Sweet Garlic Chicken Seasoning
- 2 tbsp oil + more for brushing
- 2 lbs (900 g) boneless, skinless chicken thighs
Preparation
- Preheat grill to medium-high. Lightly brush with oil.
- Slice lemon and lime in half and set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine glaze with oil; add chicken and toss to coat. If you have time, let stand 10 min, or cover and refrigerate overnight to marinate.
- Place chicken on grill, reduce heat to medium. Cook with lid closed, 5–7 min. Flip chicken; add lemon and lime to grill, cut side down. Cook lemon, lime and chicken 4–5 min, or until chicken is cooked through.
- Once lemon and lime have cooled slightly, squeeze citrus juice over chicken and serve.
