Instructions for serving

I often serve this grilled chicken Fresh green salad For my family a really simple but satisfying meal. But honestly, this is one of those recipes that go with anything. If you are like something warm, try it out Lemon butter green beansOr a scoop Cheese broccoli rice?? On warm days, I add it to it Dilatini pasta salad Easy for dinner. And if you want to increase it a little extra taste, a light rimzim Homemade Balasamic Glaze Really things take a hack.

  1. Be sure to use kosher salt for the sea. Flat, flaky crystals dissolve very well in the water and produce crystal-cloil brine. Don't just forget to rinse the sea before cooking. If they are excluded from the step, the chicken can become more salty.
  2. Do not exclude brown sugar; It helps to develop those beautiful four!
  3. Putting the smooth part of the breast on the first grill helps you to make sure that the score of that bright grill will be at the top! So, start down the smooth side to make sure you get some drug grill points on that bird!
  4. If your chicken is sticking to the grill, cook it for another one or two minutes. When you flip it, it should easily go down.
  5. It wants to be made in the oven? I heat the oven to 450 ° F and bake the chicken breast for about 15-20 minutes. The internal temperature will once register on the meat thermometer to 165 ° F. Alternatively, you can try our attempted and true Baked chicken breast recipe!

Storage instructions

I recommend storing the remaining grilled chicken for 3 days in the airtight container in the refrigerator. To freeze, place it in a ziplock bag to wrap individual chicken breasts in a plastic rap or aluminum foil for 3 months. Allow to melt overnight in the refrigerator before retracting on the microwave or on medium heat.

Our favorite costs effective grill

When I was looking for our grill to use budget bytes in the kitchen, it is easy to find, easy to set up, easy to clean, and I didn't want to miss my coal grill. After considering some of the different things available in Walmart, Target and Amazon Mezon, I went with the Ninja Siezel Smokeless grill.

The cheapest grill option I found was a simple and small camping coal grill. If you want to grill out, this is a great option, it is not a smoker's taste and the coal is not in hand.

The Grill comes with a grill top and a flat tops without smoking the Ninja Siege we decide, so it is perfect as a quick, clean alternative to grilling at home or RV/Camper. (After that I have bought one for my chef kit and my mother -in -law bought one for their camp!)
