Preparation of Chicken

Grilling or Breaded Chicken
If grilling, preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper, then brush with olive oil. Grill for about 6-7 minutes on each side until fully cooked and juices run clear. In the last minute of grilling, brush BBQ sauce over the chicken. If breading, dip the chicken in flour, then egg, and finally breadcrumbs before frying in olive oil until golden brown and cooked through.
