- 2 pounds Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 1 Tablespoon Oil
- 1 cup Buffalo Sauce
Preheat the grill over medium high heat (approximately 400-425 degrees F) and rub the grill grates with oil to prevent the chicken thighs from sticking to the grill.
Dry the chicken as much as possible and then coat the chicken with the salt, pepper and garlic powder.
Place the seasoned chicken thighs on the grill over direct heat. Cover and cook for 5-7 minutes per side until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of around 160 degrees F.
Then baste both sides of the chicken thighs with the buffalo sauce and cook each side for 2-3 more minutes until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 175 degrees F.
Remove from the grill. Let the chicken rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Then the chicken is ready to serve and enjoy!
Refrigerate the leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
Use an oil with a high heat rate to oil the grill gates. Avocado oil, vegetable or coconut oil all work great.
Chicken breasts can be used in this recipe instead of chicken thighs. If using chicken breasts, grill until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F to prevent them from drying out.
