1
Prepare the Chicken
In a bowl, combine the olive oil, mesquite seasoning, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken breasts and coat them evenly with the marinade. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes.
2
Cook the Chicken
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the marinated chicken breasts for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from the grill and let it rest.
3
Prepare the Shrimp
In the same bowl, toss the jumbo shrimp with a little olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Skewer them if desired.
4
Cook the Shrimp
Grill the shrimp for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until they turn pink and opaque. Remove from the grill.
5
Serve
Serve the grilled mesquite chicken with the grilled jumbo shrimp on the side. Enjoy!
