Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

5 cloves garlic
1 cup chopped fresh cilantro
½ cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano
1 teaspoon salt
½ cup olive oil
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon lime juice
4 (6 ounce) bone-in chicken breast halves
1 tablespoon herb rub with salt

Steps:

  • Place garlic in a food processor and pulse until finely chopped. Add cilantro, parsley, oregano, and salt; pulse until finely chopped. Drizzle in oil, vinegar, and lime juice slowly, while the blade is spinning. Process for about 1 minute. Cover with a lid and store chimichurri in the refrigerator until ready to use.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Rub chicken breasts on all sides with herb rub.
  • Turn the middle burners to low on the preheated grill and place chicken, skin-side down, over those burners. Close the lid and cook for 5 minutes. Turn the middle burners off and flip chicken. Close lid and cook until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, about 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Serve chicken with chimichurri.
