Description

These Grilled Chicken Breasts are packed with irresistible flavor and are simple to prepare. With a blend of marinades and spices, they’re perfect for a quick dinner or a healthy meal any day of the week.


Ingredients

Scale
  • ⅓ cup olive oil or vegetable oil
  • ¼ cup apple cider vinegar or red wine vinegar
  • 3 tablespoons worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons dijon mustard
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons italian seasoning
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt or to taste
  • 1 tablespoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts

Instructions

  1. Combine all marinade ingredients in a bowl or freezer bag and add the chicken, tossing well to coat.
  2. Cover or seal the chicken and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or up to 4 hours.
  3. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
  4. Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off and discard the remaining marinade.
  5. Place the chicken on the grill for 7 to 8 minutes, then flip and cook for an additional 7 to 8 minutes, or until the chicken reaches 165°F.
  6. Transfer the chicken to a plate and let it rest for 3 to 5 minutes before slicing.

Notes

For extra flavor, marinate the chicken overnight.
Ensure the grill is properly preheated for even cooking.
Letting the chicken rest helps retain its juices.
