Juicy Grilled Garlic Butter Chicken

This dish features chicken breasts marinated in a rich garlic butter sauce, then grilled to perfection. The recipe takes about 30 minutes from start to finish and serves 4 people.

Ingredients

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon paprika
1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions

Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, mix melted butter, minced garlic, parsley, salt, pepper, paprika, and lemon juice.
Marinate the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring it is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.
Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Grill the Chicken: Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off. Place the chicken on the grill and cook for 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
