Preparation Instructions
- 1
Grill the Chicken
Preheat your grill to medium heat. Season the chicken breasts with salt and black pepper on both sides. Place the chicken on the grill and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Once cooked, remove from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
