- 4 g, Garlic Granules
- 1 tsp, Basil, dried
- 2 tablespoons, Lemon juice

Steps
- Prepare the chicken thigh fillets by trimming any excess fat. Make sure they are dry to better absorb the seasoning.

- Rub the seasoning mix thoroughly onto both sides of each chicken thigh fillet.
- Squeeze lemon over the seasoned chicken thigh fillets, ensuring they are evenly coated with lemon juice.

- Flip the chicken over and continue cooking for another 5-7 minutes, or until fully cooked through and juices run clear.
