This grilled buttermilk chicken is juicy, flavorful, and easy to make. The marinade enhances the chicken’s taste, making it perfect for summer barbecues.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts
- 1 1/2 cups Buttermilk
- 1 teaspoon Onion Powder
- 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 1 Tablespoon Italian seasoning
- 1 Tablespoon Honey
- 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
- 1/2 teaspoon Cayenne Pepper
Instructions
- Stir together the buttermilk, onion powder, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, honey, olive oil and cayenne pepper in a bowl.
- Place the chicken in a ziplock bag and pour the buttermilk mixture on top.
- Allow the chicken to marinade for at least 1 hour or up to 24 hours.
- Preheat the grill to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Brush the grill grates with oil to prevent the chicken from sticking.
- Once the grill is hot, place the chicken on the grill.
- Cook the chicken for 5-7 minutes on each side until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.
- Move the chicken from the grill to a separate plate, let the chicken sit for 5 minutes. Then it’s ready to slice and enjoy!
Notes
- This chicken can also be baked in the oven if a grill is not available.
- Marinating longer will yield a more flavorful chicken.
