- Lightly oil the grill grate. Place chicken on the grill, and cook for 6 to 8 minutes on each side, until juices run clear.

Tips:
- Choose the right chicken breasts: Look for boneless, skinless chicken breasts that are about the same size so they cook evenly.
- Make sure the chicken is fully thawed before cooking: This will help it cook evenly and prevent the center from being undercooked.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: If you're cooking multiple chicken breasts, make sure there's enough space between them so they can cook evenly.
- Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature: The chicken is cooked through when it reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- Let the chicken rest before serving: This will help the juices redistribute and make the chicken more tender.
Conclusion:
These chicken breasts with spicy rub are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that's perfect for a weeknight dinner. The chicken is moist and flavorful, and the rub gives it a nice kick. Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
