Grilled Lemon Pepper Chicken

Report
I like to have a few staple seasonings on hand so I can make a delicious chicken breast whenever I need. One of my favorite go-to chicken recipes is this Grilled Lemon Pepper Chicken. Citrus and rosemary pair so well together for a hearty, savory, and slightly sweet dish.

Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 lb chicken breast ~ 3 small breasts
  • ½ lemon small
  • 1 tbsp rosemary dried
  • ½ tbsp lemon pepper

Instructions

  1. Remove the chicken from its container and trim any excess fat off. Run pieces under lukewarm water.
  2. Take 2 large sheets of saran wrap and layer them on a cutting board or countertop and place chicken breasts on top. Cover chicken with 2 more sheets of saran wrap.
  3. Using a meat tenderizer, pound the chicken breasts until they’re all equal thickness. (I aim for about ½ inch thickness).
  4. Remove the top layer of plastic wrap and evenly spread lemon juice on the chicken. In a small mixing bowl, combine dried rosemary and lemon pepper. Sprinkle on the chicken breasts.
  5. Grill chicken at 500°F for 8-10 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 165°F. Plate and enjoy!

Notes

  • Pair your chicken with your favorite roasted or grilled vegetables, rice, rolls—whatever sounds best to you!
  • Store cooked chicken in the refrigerator for up to 3-5 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
