It's summer which means it's time to put that grill to use! There's hardly a better way to serve up a healthy meal than something yummy cooked on the grill! Tonight I made this Honey Lemon Grilled Chicken and it was fantastic! I let the chicken marinate in a delicious mixture of honey, lemon juice, olive oil and garlic. I used both boneless, skinless chicken breasts and thighs. They were both absolutely wonderful, so either will work!
Here's what you need;
About 3 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
Seasoning mix:
1 t paprika
1 t dried ginger
1 t dried oregano
2 t salt
Marinade:
1/2 cup honey
Juice of one lemon
1 t minced garlic
1/3 cup olive oil
Mix up all the ingredients for the marinade. Mix up the ingredients for the seasoning mix. Place the chicken in a long dish. Season the chicken on all sides with the seasoning mix. Now pour the marinade over the chicken and flip the pieces of chicken to coat both sides. Cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours or up to about 6 hours. Grill the chicken on medium-high heat until it reaches an internal temperature of 165. Enjoy!
