Ingredients
- 4 whole chicken breasts
- 0.25 cup coconut aminos
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 large garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
Directions
Step 1
Begin by flattening the chicken breasts slightly. Place each chicken breast between two sheets of plastic wrap and use a meat mallet or rolling pin to pound it to an even thickness of about 1 inch.
Step 2
In a shallow dish, combine coconut aminos, olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, paprika, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Stir well to mix the marinade ingredients.
Step 3
Place the chicken breasts in the marinade, making sure each piece is well coated. Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, ideally 1-2 hours, to allow the flavors to infuse into the chicken.
Step 4
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Step 5
Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off. Discard the used marinade.
Step 6
Place the chicken chops on the grill and cook for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the juices run clear.
Step 7
Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Step 8
Serve the Whole30 Savory Chicken Chops with a side of grilled vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
