LEMON AND THYME GRILLED CHICKEN BREASTS RECIPE - NYT COOKING



Lemon and Thyme Grilled Chicken Breasts Recipe - NYT Cooking image

These classic herb and lemon-seasoned chicken breasts will win over fans, especially when cooked over charcoal to give them the deepest, smokiest taste. For dark meat lovers, this recipe will also work with boneless, skinless thighs, though you might have to add a minute or so to the cooking time. Or use a combination of breasts and thighs and make everyone happy.

Provided by Melissa Clark

Total Time 1 hours 30 minutes

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 (6-ounce) boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons chopped thyme leaves
4 garlic cloves, crushed and peeled
2 lemons, as needed
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, more as needed
Torn basil or mint leaves, as needed

Steps:

  • Place chicken breasts between two sheets of parchment or plastic wrap. Using a mallet or rolling pin, pound each to an even thickness of 1/2 inch. Do not make them any thinner or they could dry out.
  • Place chicken in a large bowl and toss with salt, pepper, thyme, garlic and the zest and juice of 1 lemon. Mix in olive oil. Cover and refrigerate 1 to 2 hours. Remove chicken from fridge while you heat the grill.
  • Light the grill, building a hot fire, or heat your gas grill to high. Once grill is fully heated, brush breasts lightly with olive oil and place chicken on the grill. Cook until undersides are browned and chicken is about halfway cooked, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip breasts and grill until cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes more.
  • Transfer chicken to a platter. Drizzle with oil and garnish with additional lemon juice, olive oil and basil or mint leaves.

STUFFED LEMON THYME CHICKEN RECIPE - FOOD.COM
I was looking for a nice light summertime dish and this came to mind. I combined two of my greatest loves, artichoke hearts and roasted red bell peppers, and made them into this fantastic Mediterranean inspired dish. The chicken itself has so much flavor from the marinade and the stuffing is delicious. I kept it simple so all the flavors would shine. Try serving it over an herb cous cous or even a spicy cous cous. Enjoy!
