A quick lemon-garlic marinade breathes life into plain boneless, skinless chicken breasts. Cutting the breast in half horizontally whittles cooking time down to just 6 to 8 minutes on the grill.

Ingredients

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp dried Italian herb seasoning
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper

Preparation

With sharp knife held horizontally, cut each chicken breast in half to make 2 filets. Between plastic wrap, flatten to even thickness.

In bowl, whisk together oil, parsley, lemon juice, Italian seasoning, garlic, salt and pepper; add chicken, turning to coat. Cover and marinate for 15 minutes.

Place chicken on greased grill over medium-high heat; brush with remaining marinade. Close lid and grill, turning once, until no longer pink inside, 6 to 8 minutes.
