Ingredients
- 4 pieces chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 3 pieces garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Start by preparing the marinade. In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Whisk everything together until well combined.
Step 2
Place the chicken breasts in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, making sure each piece is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap.
Step 3
Marinate the chicken in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or up to 4 hours for the best flavor infusion. Turn the chicken occasionally to ensure even marination.
Step 4
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Once hot, oil the grill grates lightly to prevent the chicken from sticking.
Step 5
Remove the chicken breasts from the marinade and let any excess drip off. Discard the marinade.
Step 6
Place the chicken on the grill. Cook each side for about 6-7 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and has nice grill marks. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
Step 7
Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. This helps the juices redistribute throughout the meat, keeping it moist.
Step 8
Serve the grilled chicken breasts hot, alongside your favorite Whole30 compliant sides such as steamed vegetables or a fresh salad.
