Chicken thigh grilled is a flavorful dish featuring tender, dark meat chicken thighs cooked over an open flame or on a grill. Commonly seasoned with spices, marinades, or simple herbs like garlic, paprika, or lemon juice, this dish is popular in cuisines worldwide, from American barbecue to Mediterranean and Asian cooking. Known for its rich taste and juiciness, chicken thigh is naturally higher in fat than chicken breast, providing a deeper flavor but also slightly more calories. It is a good source of protein, essential vitamins like B6, and minerals such as zinc and iron. Grilling adds a smoky depth without the need for heavy oils, making it a healthier preparation method. However, portion size and added marinades or sauces should be monitored to keep sodium and calorie levels in check. Perfect for balanced meals, it pairs well with vegetables, whole grains, or a fresh salad.
