Preparation of Chicken

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine the olive oil, salt, black pepper, cumin, and chili powder. Add the chicken breasts and coat them evenly in the marinade. Let them marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Preheat the Grill

    While the chicken is marinating, preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

    Grill the Chicken

    Once the grill is hot, place the marinated chicken breasts on the grill. Cook for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from the grill and let rest for 5 minutes.

Preparation of Vegetables
