Simple Grilled Garlic Chicken




My husband is the grill master of the household, especially when it comes to barbeque chicken. One night he decided to try something different (rather than just adding bbq sauce) and the result was this recipe. We have been enjoying it ever since!

Ingredients:

1 pound of boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 4, half inch thick breasts work well)
1 tablespoon olive oil
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon pepper

Directions

Place the chicken breasts on a large plate. Put the olive oil in a small dish and use a brush to lightly coat both sides (or use your hands to rub it in). In a separate dish mix the salt, garlic and pepper together. Coat the chicken breast on one side with half the mixture, flip and coat the other side with the rest. Preheat a large nonstick pan or barbeque grill and cook on high heat for 10-15 minutes each side until no longer pink in the center.
