📝 Preparation Steps
1
In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, olive oil, salt, pepper, and thyme leaves. Place the chicken in a large freezer-safe plastic bag. Pour in marinade, squeeze out air and close the bag. Mash until chicken is evenly coated. Place the plastic bag in a dish and refrigerate at least ⏱️ 30 minutes or overnight.
2
Preheat grill over medium-high heat for ⏱️ 5 minutes. Oil grates. Place chicken over direct heat on the grill, close the cover, and grill ⏱️ 5 minutes on each side, turning once.
3
Transfer chicken to indirect heat and continue to cook until an internal thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the largest chicken breast reaches 165 degrees, 5 to ⏱️ 10 minutes longer. Remove to a cutting board and tent with foil for ⏱️ 10 minutes. Slice or chop if desired.
