Chicken thighs are always nice and tender and almost impossible to over cook, which is one reason we love them. But another reason is that they are such a great vehicle for different spices and we especially love coating boneless, skinless chicken thighs with Peppercorn Perfection and grilling them for a quick, easy and delicious entree that complements just about any side dish you might have in mind … rice, potatoes and all sorts of grilled veggies.
You can use the Peppercorn Perfection as a marinade too, by mixing it with olive oil and water, and it can sit all day in the marinade while you’re at work. This spice blend can be used as a rub or marinade mix and that depends upon what you like best! Using it as a rub, gives the chicken a nice crusty of peppercorn blend, but as a marinade the chicken thighs are infused with the spices.
