Marinade and Chicken

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a blender or food processor, combine the garlic cloves, onion, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Blend until smooth.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Place the chicken breasts in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring all pieces are coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Grill

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

  4. 4

    Grill the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing any excess marinade to drip off. Place the chicken breasts on the grill and cook for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the chicken is golden brown.

  5. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. Sprinkle fresh parsley on top before serving. Enjoy your Pollo a la Plancha!
