Step-by-step
- Note about chicken
- I find that this works best for me, but you might use something else.
- I typically buy the already individually frozen chicken breasts at Walmart.
- I will take 3 out of the freezer and put in a 9x13 pan, mix up the ingredients for the marinade and spoon over the top of each breast, flip and coat other side as well.
- I will let the breasts sit out for an hour or two to somewhat thaw.
- When they have thawed a bit, I will use my sharpest knife and slice the breast through the middle *essentially making two thinner chicken breasts*.
- Flip and coat the breasts in the marinade.
- Stick in the fridge till you are ready to cook.
- I typically have a little marinade left over that I stick in the fridge with the chicken
- ALWAYS use marinade that is fresh. NEVER use marinade that your raw food was sitting in to baste your food with as it cooks.
- I will get the grill screaming hot with the lid closed.
- Let some of the marinade drip off the breast before you slap them on the grill.
- I typically grill each side for 5 minutes.
- If you try to move/flip the breast and it won’t pull off the grill LEAVE IT, it’s not done.
- I always grill with the lid closed. It makes the best pieces of meat, perfect char-marks.
- I have a little Weber Q grill so I leave it on high when I’m cooking, that’s just the way my grill works. Test out yours before putting it on high throughout the whole cooking time.
- Just before they are done, I will brush some more marinade on both sides.
- It’s quick and easy and tasty and you usually have the ingredients on hand..
