Ingredients

  • 4 pieces boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup Creamy Caesar dressing
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Place the chicken breasts in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish.

Step 2

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the Caesar dressing, lemon juice, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until well blended.

Step 3

Pour the marinade over the chicken breasts, ensuring they are evenly coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight for best results.

Step 4

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and oil the grates to prevent sticking.

Step 5

Remove the chicken breasts from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Discard the remaining marinade.

Step 6

Grill the chicken for 6-8 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the chicken is cooked through.

Step 7

Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 8

Optional: Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving. Serve alongside a salad, rice, or your favorite side dish.
