Juicy Easy Garlic Chicken with Butter Baste

Easy Garlic Chicken Recipe on the Arteflame Grill

This Easy Garlic Chicken recipe is a simple yet flavorful dish that anyone can prepare. With only a few ingredients, you’ll achieve juicy chicken breasts packed with garlic flavor, all grilled to perfection on the Arteflame.

Ingredients:

  • 4 boneless chicken breasts
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil (for the grill)
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish

Optional Garnishes:

  • Fresh lemon slices
  • Crushed red pepper flakes

Instructions:

1. Prep the Arteflame Grill

Start by lighting the Arteflame grill. Place three vegetable oil-soaked paper towels under the firewood, ignite, and let the grill heat up for about 20 minutes. The center grate will reach over 1,000°F for quick searing, while the flat griddle is ideal for evenly cooking the chicken.

2. Season the Chicken

Pat the chicken breasts dry and season them with salt, pepper, and oregano. Set aside while you prepare the garlic butter mixture.

3. Prepare the Garlic Butter

In a small bowl, mix the minced garlic with melted butter. This will be used to baste the chicken during cooking.

4. Sear the Chicken

Place the chicken breasts on the center grill grate and sear for 2-3 minutes per side until they develop a nice golden-brown crust.

5. Cook on the Flat Griddle

Move the seared chicken to the flat top griddle. Brush the garlic butter mixture generously over the chicken and let it cook for another 8-10 minutes, flipping occasionally, until the internal temperature reaches 160°F.

6. Rest and Serve

Remove the chicken from the grill and allow it to rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped parsley and optional lemon slices or red pepper flakes for an extra flavor boost.

Tips:

  • Cook with different heat zones: Use the center grate for quick searing and move the chicken to the cooler flat griddle for slow, even cooking.
  • Make it zesty: Add fresh lemon juice or zest while brushing with garlic butter for a citrusy twist.

5 Variations:

  1. Lemon Garlic Chicken: Add fresh lemon juice to the garlic butter mixture for a bright, zesty flavor.
  2. Spicy Garlic Chicken: Add crushed red pepper flakes to the garlic butter for some heat.
  3. Herb Garlic Chicken: Mix in chopped rosemary or thyme with the garlic butter for a fragrant herb boost.
  4. Honey Garlic Chicken: Add a tablespoon of honey to the garlic butter for a sweet touch.
  5. Garlic Parmesan Chicken: Sprinkle grated Parmesan over the chicken during the last few minutes of grilling for an extra savory finish.

Best Pairings:

  • Grilled asparagus
  • Roasted baby potatoes
  • Fresh mixed greens salad
  • Grilled corn on the cob
