Lemon Pepper Grilled Chicken
Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 3 large cloves garlic, finely grated
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
  • 2 (10 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breasts
  • lemon wedges for serving
Instructions
1
Collect all necessary components for the dish.
2
Combine lemon juice, garlic, oil, rosemary, salt, pepper, and mustard in a bowl until they are thoroughly incorporated. Utilizing a fork, create numerous small holes on each chicken breast by piercing it multiple times.
3
Introduce the chicken breasts into the bowl with the lemon juice mixture and thoroughly mix them together, using your hands to gently rub the marinade into each chicken breast. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
4
Prepare an outdoor grill to a medium-high heat level and lightly grease the grill's surface with oil.
5
Position the chicken breasts on the oiled grill grates; cook, covered, until the chicken breasts develop a light char and are no longer pink in their centers, with clear juices flowing freely, 10 to 12 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
6
Transfer the cooked chicken breasts to a serving platter; serve with lemon wedges.
