  • Ingredients:
    • 4 boneless, skinless chicken breast 
    • Qt sized or larger Ziploc bag
    • 1-2 lemons pitted & squeezed (about a 1/4 cup of juice)
    • 1/4 cup olive oil
    • 1 shallot finely chopped
    • 2 cloves garlic finely chopped
    • 4 tablespoons grainy Dijon Mustard
    • 1 tablespoon herbs de Provence
    • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
    • Kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste
    • Fresh sliced basil leaves (chiffonade)

Directions

Rinse off chicken, pat dry, and put into Ziploc bag.

Add remaining ingredients into bag, massaging everything together with your hands, seal bag- remove the air, and place it in a dish in your fridge for as long as possible (a couple hours- overnight)

Heat up your grill to high heat

Cook about 6-7 minutes on each side depending on how thick your chicken breasts are (you will see clear juices in the center) or until your internal temp on the thermometer reads 165-170.
