American · Main course · 22 min total

Juicy, flavorful grilled chicken marinated in a bright lemon and herb mixture, perfect for a summer barbecue or quick weeknight dinner.

Ingredients

• 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs)
• 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
• 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

1. In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper.
2. Place chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, turning to coat. Seal and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 4 hours.
3. Preheat grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F).
4. Remove chicken from marinade and discard excess marinade. Grill chicken for 5-6 minutes per side, or until internal temperature reaches 165°F and juices run clear.
5. Let chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Tips

• For best flavor, marinate chicken for at least 2 hours.
• Serve with grilled vegetables or a fresh salad.
• Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
