Lemon-Herb Grilled Chicken
From Food Network's Marcela Valladolid [1]
Notes
If you buy the chicken breasts already trimmed in halves, they're pretty thin so there's no need for pounding.
Ingredients
- 1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped
2 tablespoons cilantro, finely chopped
1 teaspoon fresh thyme, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon fresh oregano, finely chopped
1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon lemon zest
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts halves
Vegetable oil
Directions
- Mix all ingredients except chicken together in a 1-gallon ziplock bag.
- Add chicken breasts and massage marinade into meat until evenly coated.
- Seal the bag and place in the refrigerator. Let the chicken marinate at least 2 hours.
- Preheat grill to high heat.
- Lightly dip a wad of paper towels in vegetable oil and, using tongs, carefully rub over grates several times until glossy and coated.
- Place chicken breasts on the grill. Grill for about 2-3 minutes per side.
