Grilled Chicken Breast Recipe
Description
The chicken breasts are coated thoroughly with a marinade made from olive oil, apple cider vinegar, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper. Allowing the meat to marinate for up to 8 hours enhances flavor penetration. The breasts are grilled on a well-oiled grill or mat over medium-high heat, typically for about 9 minutes per side, until reaching an internal temperature of 165°F.
After grilling, resting the chicken for a few minutes helps redistribute juices for tender slices. This method produces chicken breasts with flavorful seasoning and a balanced smoky profile from the grill, making it versatile for serving with salads, sides, or in sandwiches.
Ingredients
- 5 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons paprika
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 chicken breast boneless
Instructions
- In a large bowl, mix together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper. It will be a thick paste.
- Add the boneless chicken breasts to the bowl and mix well so they are completely coated in the marinade. Let them marinate while your BBQ heats up, or up to 8 hours.
- Preheat your BBQ to medium-high heat and oil the grates well. (Or use a grill mat for easy cleanup.) Grill the chicken breasts for 9 minutes on each side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Remove them from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
