Easy Grilled Garlic Chicken


IMG_0011_1

This is one of those so-stinkin-easy-it-shouldn’t-be-posted recipes but I am going to post is anyways because I know you will love it! This chicken only takes about 30 minutes to make and 10 of it is marinating so you can make some potatoes or a side dish during this time…or have a glass of wine!

This is a Martha inspired recipe, I changed a few things. I served this with some roasted asparagus and roasted red skin potatoes…so good and it made the house smell fantastic!

Easy Grilled Garlic Chicken

4 chicken breasts, pounded thin
1 T. olive oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 T. white wine vinegar
1 1/2 T. chopped fresh rosemary
salt and pepper to taste

1. Combine everything except the chicken in a medium bowl and whisk together.

2. Add chicken and coat completely. Allow to marinate at room temperature for 10 minutes.

3. Heat up your indoor or outdoor grill, or a grill pan. Grill chicken about 4-5 minutes on both sides. Remove from grill, place on a plate and cover with foil for about 5 minutes (I find this keeps it nice and juicy).

4. Serve it up!

    This sounds great but I worry about sticking. Do you oil the grill or the chicken?

    Hi Kelly!
    I actually used my indoor grill/panini press which is non stick so I didn’t have a problem with sticking at all, however if I were doing this outside, I would probably oil the grates just to be safe :)

    You can avoid sticking on the grill by making sure it’s not too hot. Grill should be about 350 degrees. You can also run some oil on the grates for extra protection. It’s best to use a cloth and rub on when the grates are heated up.
