A delightful grilled chicken recipe with a zesty glaze, perfect for a quick and flavorful meal.
Mix together the garlic powder, chili powder, onion powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper in a bowl.
Ensure the spices are evenly mixed for a consistent flavor.
Lightly coat the chicken breasts with olive oil and then rub the spice mixture all over them.
Massage the rub into the chicken for better flavor absorption.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and cook the chicken for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until fully cooked.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F.
Combine the honey, apple cider vinegar, and Dijon mustard in a small bowl.
Warming the honey slightly can make it easier to mix.
During the last minute of grilling, brush the chicken with the glaze, reserving some for serving.
Apply the glaze in layers for a more intense flavor.
Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
Resting allows the juices to redistribute, keeping the chicken moist.
