Grilled Chicken
Method
Grilled Chicken
Prepare chicken
Trim any excess fat from the 7 oz boneless, skinless chicken breast. If the breast is thick on one end, butterfly it or gently pound it to an even thickness (about 1/2 inch) so it cooks evenly.
Season
Pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Rub 1 tsp olive oil evenly over both sides. Sprinkle 1 tsp kosher salt, 1/4 tsp black pepper, and 1/4 tsp garlic powder (if using) onto both sides, pressing gently so the seasonings adhere. Drizzle 1 tsp fresh lemon juice over the chicken if using for a light brightness.
Cook chicken
Place the chicken on the hot grill or skillet. Cook undisturbed for 4 to 5 minutes, then flip and cook 3 to 4 more minutes, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 165°F (74°C). Total cook time will be about 7 to 10 minutes depending on thickness.
Rest and serve
Transfer the chicken to a cutting board and let rest for 3 to 5 minutes to allow juices to redistribute. Slice or serve the whole breast. Serve warm.
