15 minute marinade for grilled chicken
Grilled chicken is a summer staple, and something most everyone likes. However, chicken can be bland, so when I grill chicken, I always like to give it a
flavour boost.
Spice mixes and rubs can add a ton of flavour, but sometimes all chicken needs is a quick marinade in a little
lemon,
garlic,
salt and
pepper.
The beauty of this marinade is it's quick to prepare, and with even just
15 minutes, gives the chicken a nice lemon and garlic flavour. Simply
stir together
1 clove garlic that has been minced or grated,
½ tsp lemon zest,
pinch each salt and pepper and
1 tsp olive oil.
Rub all over chicken and marinate for at least 15 minutes. Then grill and serve!
The marinade makes enough for
two chicken breasts, but can easily be doubled, tripled, and so on.
