- 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts
Marinade
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
In a reusable container, whisk together the ingredients for the chicken marinade. Add the chicken and toss to combine. Refrigerate, covered, for 30 minutes to 24 hours.
When ready to grill the chicken, preheat your grill. (See instructions in the post for baking.) Turn all the burners on high and let the grill heat up for 15 minutes with the cover closed. After 15 minutes, leave one burner on high and turn off the others. Oil the grates. Put the chicken over the burners that are off. Grill for 6 to 9 minutes. Flip the chicken and grill for 6 to 9 more minutes or until it reaches 140 degrees on the thickest part of the chicken.
Place the chicken over the burners that are on. Continue grilling for 2 to 6 more minutes or until the chicken reaches 165 degrees.
