I love the flavor of lemon with chicken and have been making this marinade for a long time now. You can make the chicken on the grill, indoor grill or even broil it. It’s a very simple marinade and also quick cooking so it’s perfect for a weeknight dinner.
Italian Lemon Chicken
Serves 4
Ingredients
1 1/4 lbs skinless, boneless thin chicken breasts
Juice of 1 lemon
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
2-3 garlic cloves minced
2 tbsp. chopped fresh parsley
1-2 tbsp. Dijon mustard
pinch of red pepper flakes or more if you prefer
pinch of red pepper flakes or more if you prefer
salt to taste
Directions
Combine all the ingredients in a bowl and add chicken to a ziplog bag and pour marinade over it. Refrigerate for about an hour. Discard marinade. Preheat grill to medium and grill the chicken for about 5 minutes on each side or until chicken is no longer pink inside. Remember to cover the chicken with foil after it’s done for about 10 minutes and let it rest.
Enjoy!
Enjoy!
Can’t go wrong with simple lemon and parsely! That’s one of my favorite combinations 🙂
I love anything that has a lemony taste.
This looks sooooooo yummy!!
