4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts, butterflied while still partially frozen
Olive oil
I lemon, zested and cut in half
1 sprig of rosemary, removed from stem and finely chopped
A sprinkle of crushed red pepper
Salt and freshly ground pepper
Drizzle the chicken breasts with some olive oil on both sides. Sprinkle with the lemon zest, rosemary, crushed red pepper and salt and pepper.
Place chicken and the lemon halves on hot grill and cook about 4-6 minutes, flip and cook for an additional 4 minutes, or until the chicken is no longer pink inside.
Remove to a platter and tent with foil for about 5 minutes. Squeeze the lemon juice over and serve.
I served this with roasted red fingerling potatoes, which I also did on the grill , adding olive oil, garlic powder, chopped rosemary and salt and pepper.
I would encourage you to use the herbs that you grow and enjoy! Lime would be delicious with this, too.

Thank you for your visit! xo
Two of my favorite flavors Kitty! I l also love that you butterflied the breast, it sure seems to help it cook quicker and more evenly! Looks like a great dinner:@)
ReplyDeleteYay, Kitty....finally, a grilled chicken dish that my DH will like. His main complaint is that it always turns out too dry, too.
ReplyDeleteI have a nice BIG rosemary plant out on the deck...I babied it in the sunroom, all winter & it survived, so it is REALLY thriving outside now.
Thanks for another winner!!

Yes, sometimes the simplest recipes are the best. Looks great!
ReplyDeleteI will be making this. We coat our pork chops with lime oil before we grill them, kicking myself that I didn't think to do that with chicken.. Thanks for the kick. I have rosemary.. so this is what's for dinner tomorrow! xo marlis
ReplyDeleteKitty - your photo is beautiful and I'm sure the tasty chicken matches that. I have never used fresh rosemary...but you make it look so inviting and truly delicious!
ReplyDeleteKitty, I just jotted down this recipe, and am going to make it Friday evening. Love the simplicity! Hope you are having a good week. xo
ReplyDeleteOOOOOH, that looks so good !!! I love chicken.

This looks great! I love the idea of drizzling lemon juice over the chicken at the end. Yum!

I think all meal should be this easy, and what great flavors. Did you parboil your potatoes before you grilled them?
ReplyDeleteI didn't parboil the fingerling red potatoes, but I did cut the larger ones in half. They turned out creamy and delicious and had a great crust on them.
DeleteI not only love the flavor of lemon and rosemary, I love the aroma while the chicken is cooking.
ReplyDeleteTrue Sometimes the best meals are the easiest ones to prepare. I love your idica that tasty recipe, I'll try.
