1. Prepare the Chicken
Start by preparing your chicken thighs, trimming off any excess fat to ensure a lean and even cook. Place the trimmed chicken on a small baking sheet.
2. Brush with Olive Oil and Lemon Juice
Brush the chicken thighs on both sides with olive oil and fresh lemon juice. Season generously with coarse kosher salt and freshly ground pepper.
3. Add Spices and Lemon Zest
In a small bowl, combine the ground cumin, ground coriander, ground cinnamon, and cayenne pepper. Sprinkle this aromatic spice mix evenly over the chicken thighs, followed by a generous sprinkling of grated lemon zest.
4. Grill the Chicken
Preheat your grill for direct-heat grilling over high heat. Once the grill is hot, place the chicken thighs on the grill rack. Grill the chicken for about 6 minutes on each side.
5. Garnish and Serve
Once grilled to perfection, transfer the chicken thighs to a warmed platter. Sprinkle minced fresh cilantro over the top and serve immediately.
