The BEST grilled chicken breast and marinade recipe! An easy method for making tender, moist grilled chicken breasts every time. So Juicy!

Categories Main Course

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

1 3/4 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 3 medium breasts)
1 batch best Chicken Marinade* (see notes)
Chopped fresh herbs (crumbled feta cheese, a squeeze of lemon juice, optional for serving)
Oil (for grilling)

Steps:

Place the chicken breasts on a cutting board (leave several inches between them and work in batches as needed). Cover with plastic wrap to keep things tidy, and with a meat mallet, rolling pin, or your fist, pound the chicken to an even thickness. It doesn't need to be ultra thin-just make sure the middle is fairly even with the ends (the chicken should be about 1/2-inch thick).
With a fork, poke holes all over the chicken (this will allow the marinade to absorb).
In a large ziptop bag, combine the marinade ingredients, then add the chicken.
Seal the bag to evenly coat the chicken with the marinade. Place in a pan or bowl to catch any drips. Let the chicken marinate at room temperature for at least 30 minutes, or refrigerate it to marinate for up to 12 hours (5 to 6 hours is ideal). Even 15 minutes is better than nothing!
When ready to grill, preheat the grill to high (475 degrees F). If your chicken has been in the refrigerator, remove it and allow it to come to room temperature for at least 10 minutes. Clean and oil the grates.
Place the chicken on the grill presentation (smooth) side down, shaking off any excess marinade. Cover the grill and let cook for 4 to 5 minutes on the first side, then flip. The chicken should lift easily off the grill; if it sticks, allow it to cook another minute or two.
Recover the grill and cook for an additional 4 to 8 minutes. Chicken is considered done at 165 degrees F. I like to remove chicken from the grill around the 155-160 degree F mark and allow it to finish cooking while resting. DO NOT OVERCOOK, or your chicken will be dry.
Place the chicken on a plate and let rest for at least 5 minutes (resting is mandatory!). Add any desired toppings or sauces. Enjoy!

BAKED CHICKEN ON THE GRILL

Baked Chicken on the Grill image

I am always looking for recipes to cook on the grill as it is so hot and humid in FL and the oven just heats up the house so much. I found this recipe at Taste of Home and here is what the author states: "I first made this chicken one hot summer when the family wanted baked chicken...and I wanted to keep the kitchen cool. Now they never seem to request the oven-baked variety!"

Tips:

Choose the Right Chicken: Opt for a whole chicken or chicken breasts with skin for added flavor and moisture.
Brine the Chicken: Soaking the chicken in a flavorful brine solution enhances its taste and keeps it moist during grilling.
Use a Flavorful Marinade: Marinating the chicken in a mixture of herbs, spices, and liquids adds incredible flavor.
Season Generously: Don't be afraid to season the chicken liberally with salt, pepper, and other seasonings before grilling.
Preheat the Grill: Ensure your grill is preheated to the desired temperature before placing the chicken on it.
Cook Indirectly: For even cooking and to prevent burning, cook the chicken indirectly over medium heat.
Monitor the Internal Temperature: Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken; it should reach 165°F (74°C) for whole chicken and 165°F (74°C) for chicken breasts.
Let the Chicken Rest: After grilling, let the chicken rest for a few minutes before carving or serving to allow the juices to redistribute.

Conclusion:

Baked chicken on the grill is an easy and flavorful dish that can be enjoyed for lunch, dinner, or even picnics. With the right techniques and attention to detail, you can achieve perfectly cooked, juicy chicken that is bursting with flavor. Experiment with different marinades, seasonings, and side dishes to create your own unique grilled chicken recipe that will impress your family and friends.
