Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Whisk
  • Dish
  • Thermometer
  • Tongs (for flipping chicken on the grill)

Ingredients

  • 8 Succulent Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts
  • 2 Aromatic Tablespoons of Garlic Powder an essence of pungent delight for flavor depth.
  • 2 Tablespoons of Mediterranean Oregano a fragrant herb to infuse your chicken with a hint of the Mediterranean.
  • 6 Velvety Tablespoons of Freshly Squeezed Lemon Juice
  • 4 Luscious Tablespoons of Chopped Parsley adding a burst of freshness to your chicken creation.
  • 2 Aromatic Tablespoons of Onion Powder a savory touch to enhance the overall taste.
  • 2 Teaspoons of Freshly Ground Black Pepper adding a touch of peppery warmth to your dish.
  • 2 Teaspoons of Kosher Salt or table salt if unavailable, to season and elevate the flavors.
  • 1 Teaspoon of Red Pepper Flakes a dash of heat to add a subtle kick to your delightful chicken ensemble.
  • 1/2 Cup of Extra Virgin Olive Oil a golden elixir to coat and grace your chicken with richness.

Instructions

  • In a bowl, combine garlic powder, Mediterranean oregano, freshly squeezed lemon juice, chopped parsley, onion powder, freshly ground black pepper, kosher salt, red pepper flakes, and extra virgin olive oil.
  • Whisk the ingredients together until well combined to create the flavorful marinade.
  • Place the boneless, skinless chicken breasts in a large, shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag.
  • Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring each piece is well coated.
  • Seal the dish or bag and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to infuse. For enhanced flavor, marinate for up to 4 hours or overnight.
  • Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  • Remove the marinated chicken from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature for about 15 minutes.
  • Grill the chicken breasts for approximately 6-8 minutes per side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C), and the chicken is cooked through.
  • Baste the chicken with any remaining marinade during grilling for added flavor.
  • Remove the Tuscan grilled chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes.
  • Slice and serve the succulent Tuscan grilled chicken with your favorite sides.
  • Enjoy the Carrabba’s Tuscan Grilled Chicken with its aromatic blend of Mediterranean flavors and succulent tenderness.

Notes

  • Marinate the chicken overnight: Marinating the chicken overnight helps to infuse the savory flavor of the herbs and spices into the chicken.
  • Use a thermometer: Using a thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken will help to ensure that it is cooked through. The internal temperature should be 165°F.
  • Let the chicken rest: Letting the chicken rest for 5-10 minutes before serving will help to keep it juicy and tender.
  • Experiment with different herbs and spices: Feel free to experiment with different herbs and spices in the marinade. You can use fresh herbs, such as parsley, oregano, and thyme, instead of dried.
  • Try different marinades: You can also try different marinades, such as a balsamic vinegar marinade, for a slightly different flavor.
