(OPTIONAL): Despite what many critics may say, I personally ALWAYS clean my chicken. I clean my chicken in a salt & vinegar bath to remove the slimy membrane that's typically on chicken. If you are okay with not washing your chicken, feel free to skip this step.
Take chicken thighs and place on a flat surface or in a bowl. Season both sides of the chicken with the Goya Adobo seasoning, lemon pepper seasoning, onion powder, garlic powder, dry sage, and red pepper. Next zest a clean lemon over chicken thighs. Place inside of a reusable plastic bag to allow chicken to marinate. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for the best flavor results.
Preheat grill. Remove the chicken from the plastic bag and discard. Place chicken on grill and cook until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). Remove from heat, and top off with a fresh chopped parsley for extra flavor. Serve and enjoy!
