Tips for Success:

  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh parsley makes all the difference in this recipe. The vibrant, bright flavor of fresh parsley truly elevates the dish.
  • Don't overcook the chicken: Overcooked chicken is dry chicken. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  • Let the chicken rest: Allowing the chicken to rest for a few minutes after grilling allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful chicken.
  • Get creative with sides: Serve this dish alongside your favorite summer sides such as a fresh green salad, grilled vegetables, or corn on the cob.
