Ingredients
- 4 pieces Skinless boneless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Low sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 2 cloves Fresh garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
Place the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap. Using a meat mallet, gently pound them to a uniform thickness of about 1/2 inch.
Step 2
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, soy sauce, honey, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, olive oil, paprika, black pepper, and salt until well combined.
Step 3
Place the chicken breasts in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring each piece is well coated.
Step 4
Seal the bag or cover the dish and let the chicken marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour for best flavor results.
Step 5
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Step 6
Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Discard the remaining marinade.
Step 7
Grill the chicken breasts for 5-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the juices run clear.
Step 8
Transfer the grilled chicken to a plate and let it rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.
Step 9
Serve the chicken chops with your choice of side dishes, such as steamed vegetables or a fresh green salad. Enjoy the juicy and flavorful chicken chop!
