Perfectly Marinated Grilled Chicken Recipe

Introduction

Elevate your grilled chicken game with this flavorful marinade that ensures every bite is juicy and tender. Whether you're prepping for a summer cookout or a weeknight dinner, this recipe combines simple ingredients to create a marinade that deeply penetrates the chicken, adding layers of savory goodness. With the Arteflame grill, you’ll achieve a perfect sear on the outside while keeping the inside moist and full of flavor.

Ingredients

  • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme

Instructions

1. Prepare the Marinade

In a medium bowl, whisk together the olive oil, soy sauce, lemon juice, minced garlic, honey, Dijon mustard, smoked paprika, black pepper, salt, oregano, and thyme until well combined.

2. Marinate the Chicken

Place the chicken breasts in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring all pieces are fully coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for maximum flavor.

3. Fire Up the Grill

Prepare your Arteflame grill by placing vegetable oil-soaked paper napkins in the grill, stacking firewood over them, and lighting the grill. Allow it to heat up for about 20 minutes until the flat cooktop reaches an ideal grilling temperature.

4. Grill the Chicken

Remove the chicken from the marinade, letting any excess drip off. Place the chicken on the flat cooktop of the grill, which is perfect for even cooking without flare-ups. Cook the chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. The chicken should have a beautiful, even sear on the outside.

5. Rest and Serve

Once done, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring every bite is tender. Serve the chicken with your favorite sides.

Tips

  • Marinating Time: For the best flavor, marinate the chicken for at least 4 hours, but overnight is ideal.
  • Check Doneness: Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken reaches 165°F internally for safe consumption.
  • Storage: Leftover grilled chicken can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion

This marinated grilled chicken is a surefire way to impress at any meal. The marinade infuses the chicken with deep, rich flavors, while the Arteflame grill ensures it’s perfectly cooked every time.

Recipe Variations

  1. Citrus Herb Marinated Chicken: Swap the soy sauce with orange juice and add fresh basil and parsley for a light, citrusy flavor.
  2. Spicy Chipotle Marinated Chicken: Add chipotle in adobo sauce and cumin to the marinade for a smoky, spicy kick.
  3. Asian-Inspired Marinated Chicken: Use soy sauce, ginger, garlic, and sesame oil for an umami-rich marinade.
  4. Greek Yogurt Marinated Chicken: Substitute olive oil with Greek yogurt and add lemon zest and dill for a creamy, tangy marinade.
  5. Balsamic Honey Marinated Chicken: Replace lemon juice with balsamic vinegar and increase the honey for a sweet and tangy twist.

Pairings

  • Wine: A crisp white wine like Sauvignon Blanc pairs wonderfully with the bright flavors of the marinade.
  • Side Dish: Grilled vegetables or a fresh garden salad complements the rich flavors of the chicken.
  • Dessert: A light, fruity dessert like lemon sorbet is a refreshing finish to this meal.
