Servings: 4
Ingredients:
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tablespoons Barnburner Spicy Rub
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt to taste
- Fresh lemon wedges (optional, for serving)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Chicken: Pat the chicken breasts dry with paper towels. Lightly coat each breast with olive oil to help the rub adhere.
- Season with Barnburner Spicy Rub: Generously sprinkle Barnburner Spicy Rub over both sides of each chicken breast, pressing it in for maximum flavor. Add a small pinch of salt if desired, though the rub itself brings plenty of bold taste.
- Marinate: Let the chicken rest for about 15-20 minutes. This short marination time allows the rub to start infusing the chicken with heat and depth.
- Preheat the Grill: Heat your grill to medium-high (around 375-400°F).
- Grill the Chicken: Place the chicken on the grill and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Adjust the cooking time if needed based on the thickness of the chicken.
- Rest and Serve: Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. This step helps the juices redistribute, keeping the chicken moist.
- Enjoy: Serve with fresh lemon wedges for a hint of brightness that complements the heat, and pair with grilled vegetables or a side salad.
