Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- ⅓ cup extra-virgin olive oil
- ¼ cup balsamic vinegar
- 4 garlic cloves – crushed
- 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
-
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper.
-
Tenderize the chicken breasts using a meat tenderizer. Then place them in a Ziploc bag, and pour the marinade mixture over top. Close the bag tightly and squish it around to coat the chicken. Place the bag on a plate and marinate at room temperature for 10 minutes or in the refrigerator for up to 12 hours.
-
Discard the excess marinade. Clean and oil your grill grates. Then grill chicken over medium-high heat for 8-10 minutes per side, until the internal temperature of the chicken reads 160°F. This simple and inexpensive digital meat thermometer will change your grilling game forever!

Remove the chicken breasts to a platter to rest and cover with a tent of aluminum foil for 10 minutes.
