Method

Preparation Steps

Prep the Chicken

Rinse the chicken breasts under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Place them in a large bowl.

Marinate the Chicken

In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Pour this marinade over the chicken breasts and ensure they are well coated. Let them marinate for at least 30 minutes, or refrigerate for up to 2 hours for more flavor.

Prepare the Lemon

Zest the lemon and then cut it in half. Set aside the zest and juice one half of the lemon.

Cooking Steps

Heat the Grill

Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat.

Cook the Chicken

Place the marinated chicken breasts on the grill. Grill for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). In the last minute of cooking, squeeze the juice of the lemon half over the chicken and add the lemon zest for added flavor.

Cook Optional Sides

If desired, toss the asparagus and potatoes in olive oil, salt, and pepper. Add them to the grill during the last 10 minutes of cooking the chicken, turning occasionally until tender.
