How to Make Grilled Chicken Moroccan Style
- In a large glass baking dish, whisk together 1/4 cup olive oil, 1/4 cup lemon juice, 2 tablespoons honey, 1 tablespoon ground cumin, 1 tablespoon ground coriander, 1 teaspoon paprika, 1 teaspoon turmeric, 1/2 teaspoon ginger, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Add 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts or a mix of breasts, thighs, and legs to the marinade.
- Turn the chicken to ensure it's fully coated in the marinade.
- Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably 6-8 hours.
- Prepare your grill for medium-high heat.
- Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade.
- Place the chicken on the preheated grill.
- Grill the chicken, brushing occasionally with any remaining marinade, until cooked through. This will take approximately 10-12 minutes per side for breasts, and 12-15 minutes per side for thighs and legs. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
- Transfer the grilled chicken to a platter.
- Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
