• 2 tablespoons of sweet paprika Asta 180

• 3 cloves of garlic (crushed)
• 1 teaspoon of dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon of ground cumin

2. Marinating the chicken: Coat the chicken thighs thoroughly in the prepared marinade. Let them marinate for at least 30 minutes, ideally overnight in the refrigerator, so the spices can penetrate the meat.
