Total time: P0Y0M0DT1H30M0.000S
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 1/2 cup olive oil; 2 tablespoons untoasted sesame seeds, white or black; 2 tablespoons tahini; 3 cloves garlic, minced or grated; Zest and juice of 1 lemon; Hot sauce, optional; Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper; 8 chicken thighs, bone in and skin on; 3 tablespoons finely chopped parsley

Directions

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, sesame seeds, tahini, garlic, lemon zest and juice and hot sauce to taste if using. Season with salt and pepper. Add the chicken and marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour and up to 8 hours.
Set up your grill for indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only. Remove the chicken from the marinade and place on the indirect heat side of the grill, skin-side up. Close the grill and cook until golden brown, 15 to 18 minutes. Flip and move to the direct heat side of the grill to char on the other side. Cook until the skin is charred and crispy and the chicken is cooked through; the internal temperature should be 160 degrees F, 2 to 3 more minutes. Remove from the grill and let rest for a few minutes. Garnish with the parsley before serving.
