Lemon Herb Grilled Chicken
Makes 6 servings
6
boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (5-6 ounces/150-175g each)
1 green onion, trimmed, finely chopped
(include several inches of green)
1 tablespoon (15ml) fresh parsley leaves, finely chopped
1/2 tablespoon (7ml) fresh rosemary, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon (2ml) kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon (2ml) freshly ground pepper
1/3 cup (75ml) extra virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons (45ml) fresh lemon juice
Trim all fat from chicken. Place a chicken breast between 2 sheets of plastic
wrap and use the flat side of a meat pounder to pound to an even thickness,
about 1/2 inch (1.25cm). Repeat with remaining chicken.
Combine green onion, parsley, rosemary, salt, pepper, olive oil and lemon juice
in a bowl; whisk to blend. Pour over the chicken and stir to coat completely.
Allow to marinate for 15 minutes – no longer.
(This is important, as the citrus will begin to “cook” the chicken and toughen it.)
Five minutes before grilling, preheat the Grill side to High. When Grill is hot
and chicken has finished marinating, drain the chicken. Arrange the chicken on
the hot Grill, spacing evenly. Grill for 5 to 6 minutes on each side.
Do not move while on the Grill, to allow nice grill markings to develop.
Check internal temperature of chicken with an instant read thermometer — the
temperature should be 170
-
175°F (77
-
79°C). Let chicken rest for 5 minutes
before slicing and serving.
