Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon lemon pepper seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup of honey, 1/4 cup of fresh lemon juice, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 2 cloves of minced garlic, 1 teaspoon of lemon pepper seasoning, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper.
- Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish and pour the honey-lemon marinade over the chicken. Ensure the chicken is well coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best results.
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the excess marinade.
- Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the chicken is no longer pink in the center.
- During the last few minutes of grilling, brush the chicken with the remaining honey-lemon marinade to create a glaze.
- Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your Honey Glazed Lemon Pepper Grilled Chicken!
