The Best Grilled Chicken Breast
The Best Grilled Chicken Breast
"Grilled chicken can be a boring food considering that it is easy to dry out and overcook. It is just pure lean meat, with not much fat to keep it juicy. However if you have the right ingredients and condiments, then grilled chicken will be flavorful and tasty. Marinating the chicken breast with different flavors will increase its flavor profile. Marinating the chicken breast for 24 hours is the perfect amount to have a flavorful and tastiest grilled chicken. If you are running out of time, then just 10 minutes will also work as long as you baste it during the grilling process to keep it moist and flavorful."
NotesYou can add a couple of herbs and spices if you want it to as well. Adding some dried oregano and dried parsley is a good idea. Even adding a teaspoon of turmeric will give a vibrant vibe.
