Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Skinless boneless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Low sodium soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 2 cloves Fresh garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Place the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap. Using a meat mallet, gently pound them to a uniform thickness of about 1/2 inch.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, soy sauce, honey, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, olive oil, paprika, black pepper, and salt until well combined.
Place the chicken breasts in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring each piece is well coated.
Seal the bag or cover the dish and let the chicken marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour for best flavor results.
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Discard the remaining marinade.
Grill the chicken breasts for 5-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the juices run clear.
Transfer the grilled chicken to a plate and let it rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.
Serve the chicken chops with your choice of side dishes, such as steamed vegetables or a fresh green salad. Enjoy the juicy and flavorful chicken chop!
