Ingredients

  • 2 Boneless, skinless chicken breast. The preference is fresh chicken or you can purchase frozen of which you will have to completely thaw before using.
  • 2 tbsp chicken or all-purpose seasoning
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp pepper

Optional

  • Your favorite seasoning or sauce for the style of chicken you are creating. Add some BBQ or teriyaki sauce or a taco seasoning packet?
  • The marinades can also be used as ideas for spices to use if you don’t have time to marinade.

Instructions

  • Preheat grill to 400-425 degrees.
  • Clean grill and then oil grill with a brush ideally.
  • Rub your chicken in oil so it doesn’t stick to the foil.
  • Rub your chicken with your seasoning or sauce.
  • Lightly re-drizzle with oil to help from sticking and sprinkle a little more seasoning.
  • Cook on each side for 5-8 minutes brushing with your sauce before and after flip.
  • If you have a meat thermometer be sure to check for an internal temperature of 165 degrees.
  • Rest. Remove the chicken from the heat and ideally cover loosely with foil for 5 minutes so the juices redistribute throughout the chicken and not run out when you cut into it.
