Juicy Grilled Chicken Breasts image

We had the family over for a Fourth of July BBQ, and I wanted to serve grilled chicken breasts that tasted really chicken-y! So I came up with this marinade that is almost like a brine. These chicken breasts were a hit with the family! Very juicy and flavorful. The Honey-Mustard Glaze was very subtle and accented the chicken nicely. I didn't add any additional salt because, for us, the broth and McCormick seasoning are salty enough. Feel free to play around by using other herbs, as well.

Time 35m

Yield 8 , 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (32 ounce) carton chicken broth (I used Pacific Natural Foods Homestyle)
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 ounces mccormick grill mates Montreal chicken seasoning
2 tablespoons dried rosemary
1 tablespoon fresh ground black pepper (or to taste)
3 garlic cloves, minced
8 boneless skinless chicken breasts
1/8 cup Dijon mustard
1/4 cup honey
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon dried rosemary

Steps:

  • Place first 6 ingredients in a gallon-sized plastic zipper bag then add the chicken breasts to the marinade. Seal the zipper bag, getting as much air out as possible.
  • Marinate for at least 24 hours in the refrigerator.
  • Grill chicken breasts over medium heat until done. Discard the used marinade. While chicken is cooking, stir the glaze ingredients together in a bowl. When chicken breasts are nearly done, brush both sides with the glaze then cook for 1 more minute to set the glaze.
  • Enjoy!
  • Cooking times are approximate and do not include marination time :).
  • I'm sure this would also work for baked chicken breasts, but I have not yet tried it.
