“This was fabulous! I had thawed chicken thighs and nothing special on hand, so I googled "lemon garlic chicken thighs" and I'm so glad I ended up here. It's going to be first on the "oh man i thawed chicken thighs and have nothing special on hand" rotation” — a cook, 5.0★
“Amazing flavors! I've made this before, but your recipe with the smoked paprika takes it to another level! Only marinaded for about 3 hours, which was fine, but more would def bring out more flavor. Will def make again...great dish!” — a cook, 5.0★
