Grilled chicken with lemon thyme organic and garlic
Lemon thyme (Thymus citriodorus) is a very versatile herb that pairs wonderfully with fish dishes and poultry. The fresh, citrusy note makes it milder than regular thyme and particularly suitable as a marinade. In this recipe we make a simple grilled chicken with lemon thyme, garlic and lemon: a dish that is ready in less than 45 minutes and requires minimal preparation.
