Hey everyone!
Today, I'm sharing one of my beloved recipes: Lemon Pepper Grilled Chicken. 
This dish is my go-to for summer barbecues and family dinners. Trust me, once you try this juicy and flavorful chicken, you'll be hooked! 




ingredients
- 2 1/5 pounds chicken breast (about 4-6 breasts)
- 2 tablespoons avocado oil
- 1/2 cup lemon juice (about 4-6 lemons)
- 2 tablespoons coarse black pepper
- lemon zest from lemons
- salt, to taste
instructions
- All all ingredients to a large ziplock bag or glass container. Mix well to coat the chicken, making sure all sides get covered (I like to shake the bag). Marinate for a maximum of 2 hours, shaking/stirring once. Marinade can be thrown away once used.
- Heat grill to medium-high heat. Once hot, place chickenover direct heat and grill for 8 minutes. Flip and move to indirect heat (not directly over fire/coals) and cook for another 7-12 minutes depending on how thick your breasts are, or until internal temperature reaches 165 degress.
- Let cool for 3-5 minute. Serve with some veggies and carbs and enjoy!
