Italian Grilled Chicken

Chicken breasts marinated in olive oil, lemon, garlic, rosemary and Italian seasoning, then grilled. Great on its own or sliced into pasta.

Cook20 min

LevelEasy
Italian

Instructions

1

Combine the marinade ingredients.

2

Add the chicken and let it sit to absorb the flavors.

I am impatient and did not wait longer than it took my grill to heat up, and the chicken was still very flavorful. Letting it sit for a few hours to overnight would probably be ideal.

3

Preheat the grill.

I used a Traeger smoker set to 450.

4

Cook about 10 minutes per side until the chicken is done, to an internal temp of 160. Let it rest before cutting.
