The Best Grilled Chicken



Say goodbye to dry, bland grilled chicken breasts. This recipe guarantees juicy, flavorful chicken every time.

Ingredients:
  • Boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • Lemon zest
  • Olive oil
  • Garlic
  • Salt and pepper

Instructions:

1. Pound the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in a 1-gallon freezer bag and pound them to an even ½-inch thickness. This ensures even cooking.

2. Make the Marinade: Mix lemon zest, olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper in a zip-lock bag. Add the chicken breasts and massage the marinade into the meat.

3. Marinate: Seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.

4, Grill: Preheat your grill to high heat, oil the grates, and cook the chicken for 2 to 3 minutes per side.

You can serve these juicy fillets on their own, topped with cheese on a toasted bun, or sliced over a Caesar salad.
