Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Herb-Grilled Chicken Breast.
Step 1
Start by preheating your grill to a medium heat, and don’t forget to lightly oil the grate to keep your chicken from sticking.
Step 2
While the grill warms up, give your chicken breasts a quick rinse under cold water, then pat them dry with paper towels.
Step 3
This little step helps ensure a nice sear.
Step 4
To let the flavors really soak in, take a fork and gently pierce the chicken several times.
Step 5
Now, grab a large resealable plastic bag and place the chicken breasts inside.
Step 6
Drizzle in some olive oil, seal the bag tightly, and give it a good shake to coat the chicken evenly.
Step 7
Next, it’s time to add some flavor! Toss in dried rosemary, thyme, oregano, chopped garlic, salt, and black pepper.
Step 8
Seal the bag again and shake it up until the chicken is beautifully coated with those aromatic herbs and spices.
Step 9
Once your grill is ready, place the marinated chicken breasts on the grate.
Step 10
Grill them for about 10 minutes on each side, keeping an eye out for those clear juices to flow and using an instant-read meat thermometer to check that they reach at least 160°F (70°C).
Step 11
This will ensure your chicken is perfectly cooked and bursting with flavor.
Step 12
Enjoy the delicious aroma as you grill, and get ready for a tasty meal!.
