To grill chicken breasts properly:

  • Preheat your grill to medium heat, around 425-450°F (218-232°C).
  • Place the marinated, fully thawed chicken breasts on the grill over direct medium heat.
  • Grill the chicken breasts for about 9 to 10 minutes total, flipping them halfway through (about 4-5 minutes per side) to get even sear marks.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature; the chicken is done when it reaches 165°F (74°C).
  • After removing from the grill, let the chicken rest for a few minutes to seal in the juices before serving

This method ensures juicy, tender, and safely cooked chicken breasts.
