Delicious BBQ Ranch Chicken Thighs

This recipe for BBQ Ranch Chicken Thighs features marinated thighs grilled to perfection, infused with smoky BBQ flavors and a creamy ranch dressing. It takes approximately 30 minutes of cooking time and serves about 4 people, making it a great option for an outdoor feast.

Ingredients

4 chicken thighs, bone-in, skin-on
1/2 cup BBQ sauce, plus extra for serving
1/4 cup ranch dressing
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
Salt and pepper to taste
Chopped parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Prepare Marinate: In a bowl, mix the BBQ sauce and ranch dressing. Line a dish with the chicken thighs and pour the marinade over them. Ensure the chicken is well-coated, cover, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for deeper flavor.
Preheat Grill: Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Cook Chicken: Remove the chicken from the marinade, letting the excess drip off. Season with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Place the thighs on the grill skin-side down for about 7-8 minutes, until nicely charred.
Flip and Grill: Turn the chicken over, brush with additional BBQ sauce, and continue grilling for another 7-10 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
