👩‍🍳 Instructions (The AI's Game Plan)

🎯 Follow along with our AI chef's step-by-step adventure. Results may vary wildly!

1

Preheat grill to medium-high heat, around 400°F (200°C). Clean and grease the grill grates to prevent sticking.

⏱️ 10 min (ish) 🌡️ 400°F

AI Wisdom: A well-preheated and clean grill ensures beautiful grill marks.
2

Season the chicken thighs with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder on both sides.

⏱️ 3 min (ish)

AI Wisdom: Ensure the seasoning is evenly distributed for balanced flavor.
3

Place seasoned chicken thighs on the grill, skin side down. Grill for 6-7 minutes per side, basting with BBQ sauce during the last 2 minutes of cooking on each side.

⏱️ 14 min (ish) 🌡️ Medium-high heat

AI Wisdom: Grill marks should be prominent, and chicken should reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
4

Remove chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley if desired.

⏱️ 5 min (ish)

AI Wisdom: Resting allows the juices to redistribute, keeping the chicken moist.
