A flavorful and easy-to-make grilled chicken recipe perfect for a healthy and quick meal.
Place the chicken breasts in a shallow dish and pour the zesty Italian dressing over them, ensuring they are well coated.
For enhanced flavor, let the chicken marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Ensure the grill grates are clean and lightly oiled to prevent sticking.
Place the marinated chicken breasts on the grill and cook for 5-7 minutes on one side.
Avoid moving the chicken too much to achieve nice grill marks.
Flip the chicken breasts and brush with additional Italian dressing. Cook for another 5-7 minutes or until fully cooked.
Use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
Resting the chicken allows the juices to redistribute, keeping it moist and flavorful.
