Description

Tender and juicy grilled chicken marinated in a flavorful mixture for a delicious summer dish.


Ingredients

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (approx. 1.5 lbs)
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • ¼ cup fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tbsp honey


Instructions

  1. Combine olive oil, lemon juice, honey, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper in a large bowl.
  2. Add chicken breasts to the bowl and coat them well with the marinade.
  3. Cover the bowl and let the chicken marinate in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.
  4. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (375°F/190°C) while the chicken marinates.
  5. Remove the chicken from the marinade and let it sit at room temperature for 10 minutes.
  6. Grill chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
  7. Allow the chicken to rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

Marinate for longer than 30 minutes if time allows, and always let the chicken rest before slicing to retain juices.
