Grilled Lemon Garlic Chicken

No ratings yet
Servings 6 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 6 6-oz. boneless skinless chicken breast halves
  • 1/2 cup lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 6 cloves garlic pressed
  • 2 teaspoons thyme

Instructions
 

  • In a small bowl combine lemon juice, olive oil, garlic and thyme to make marinade. Put the chicken in a 1-gallon ziploc-type plastic bag and the pour marinade over chicken then seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 6 to 8 hours or overnight. If you can, squish it around every now and then to distribute marinade. Drain chicken, discarding marinade. (Don’t even THINK about using it again!)
  • Light the barby till coals are to a medium-high heat. (Not red hot, but slightly ash-y if not using gas). Grill for 5 to 6 minutes per side or until cooked through. (You can also cook this on the stove top in a skillet: heat a little olive oil and cook till browned on each side, about 5 minutes per side or until cooked throughout)

Notes

SERVING SUGGESTIONS: Serve with brown rice, grilled asparagus (lightly steam first, brush with a little olive oil and finish them on the grill-YUM!) and a huge salad.
