Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 0.5 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika

Equipment

  • Grill
  • Small bowl
  • Tongs
  • Meat thermometer
  • Cutting board

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F or 200°C). Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Seasoning the Chicken
  1. Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Rub the mixture evenly over both sides of the chicken breasts.
Grilling
  1. Place the seasoned chicken breasts on the preheated grill. Grill for 6-8 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Resting
  1. Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in more tender and flavorful chicken.
Serving
  1. Slice the grilled chicken and serve immediately with your favorite sides. Enjoy your perfectly grilled chicken!

Notes

For extra flavor, consider marinating the chicken for at least 30 minutes (or up to 4 hours) before grilling. You can also experiment with different spices and herbs to customize the taste to your liking.
