How to Make Grilled Lemon And Rosemary Chicken

  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  2. Place chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs total) in a glass baking dish.
  3. Pour 1/2 cup Italian dressing over the chicken breasts, ensuring they are evenly coated.
  4. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of fresh rosemary, chopped, over the chicken.
  5. Gently turn the chicken to coat both sides in the dressing and rosemary.
  6. Marinate the chicken for at least 10 minutes, or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator for maximum flavor.
  7. Remove chicken from marinade and place on the preheated grill rack.
  8. Cut 1 lemon into 4-6 rounds. Dip lemon rounds in the remaining 1/4 cup Italian dressing.
  9. Place lemon rounds on the grill rack near the chicken.
  10. Grill chicken for 6-8 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Grill lemons until slightly charred, about 2-3 minutes per side.
  11. Remove chicken and lemons from the grill.
  12. Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
  13. Top each chicken breast with grilled lemon rounds and serve immediately. Enjoy!
