Creating Low Carb BBQ Chicken Thighs is simple and can be done in just a few easy steps. Follow this guide for best results:

1. Preheat the Grill: Begin by preheating your grill to medium-high heat.
2. Prepare the Chicken: Pat the chicken thighs dry with paper towels to ensure a good sear.
3. Coat with Oil: Rub the chicken thighs with olive oil, ensuring even coverage.
4. Season the Thighs: Sprinkle smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt over the chicken. Rub the spices in evenly.
5. Grill the Chicken: Place the chicken thighs skin-side down on the grill. Cook for about 15 minutes, then flip and grill for another 10-15 minutes. Ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
