This easy grilled chicken recipe uses a flavorful chicken marinade for the most wonderful taste! With this marinade and cooking method, you'll have the most juicy, tender, and full of flavor grilled chicken breasts. Cook on a hot barbecue for a fast meal ready in under 30 minutes.
Place the chicken in a large ziplock bag and set aside.
In a small bowl or jar, add the olive oil, dijon, red wine vinegar, garlic, lemon juice, dried oregano, cumin, kosher salt, and black pepper. Whisk or shake jar with lid to combine.
Add the marinade in the bag with the chicken. Seal the bag and then knead with your hands to ensure all of the chicken is well coated. Place in the fridge and marinate for at least 30 minutes and preferably 4-24 hours.
To grill the chicken, heat grill to medium-high heat, about 400 degrees F. Once hot, grill chicken until cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Serve alongside or on top of a salad or with grilled or roasted veggies.
Notes
*If you don't have thinly sliced chicken breast, place the chicken breast on a cutting board and cover with saran wrap or place chicken in a large baggie. Using a meat mallet or the bottom of skillet, pound until 1/2 inch thick.Photos by Danielle from Our Salty Kitchen.
