How To Make The Best Roasted Chicken Thighs Big Green Egg

Exclusive Recipe: Mr. Squeeze’s Roasted Chicken Thighs… juicy, flavorful cooked to perfection in under 30 minutes.

There’s nothing better than biting into juicy and tender meat that was cooked just right! The Big Green Egg is the perfect tool for making this dish because it provides even heat distribution so you won’t have any burnt or overcooked parts – guaranteed good taste every time.”

I love feeling like a Super Chef when I’m cooking on the Big Green Egg for Mr. Squeeze. Being outside instead of the kitchen, immersed in nature, surrounded by flowers and birds…C’mon now… what woman wouldn’t love that! And not to mention, I seem to have this innate ability to make anything taste good when it’s cooked over an open fire!

I like to say… for the Big Green Egg, think of your oven but on steroids (without all those pesky buttons to push). The Big Green Egg is like nature’s perfect smoker, grill and oven all in one.

As for the roasted chicken thighs, a few simple ingredients are all that’s needed for this dish! 

My Mr. Squeeze wanted chicken strips in warm tortillas with mango salsa – less than 30 minutes from start until finish!!

The ease of prepping food on the weekends has been a lifesaver for me. I always feel so much better when it’s Monday and we get to eat our backyard nibbles! 

Between you and me, I think Mr. Squeeze may not know that his next 3 nights are going to be a lot like tonight! Pre-packing our meals is such an awesome idea – saves us from cleaning up grease in the kitchen or scrubbing pots after long days at work. And as a bonus, nothing makes me feel better knowing we’re eating something tasty and healthy for dinner with just a little Sunday prep.

When viewing the ingredients, know that I tend to free-flow and shake until it feels right. Please feel free to adjust according your taste! As for me? Well let’s just say I’m more of a free spirit when cooking–with no guidelines needed 😉
