Ingredients

  • •4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (6-8 oz each)
  • •3 tablespoons olive oil
  • •2 teaspoons salt
  • •1 teaspoon black pepper
  • •1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • •1 teaspoon paprika
  • •1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • •1 tablespoon lemon juice

Directions

  1. 1Pat chicken breasts dry and pound to even 1-inch thickness.
  2. 2Mix olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, thyme, and lemon juice in a bowl.
  3. 3Rub the mixture evenly over both sides of each chicken breast.
  4. 4Preheat grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F) and lightly oil the grates.
  5. 5Grill chicken for 6-7 minutes per side until internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  6. 6Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.

💡 Chicken breast releases cleanly from the grill once a crust forms; forcing an early flip tears the surface and leaves pale meat behind.
