Moroccan Spiced Grilled Chicken Breasts
INGREDIENTS
- 1/2 cup plain yogurt
- 1 Tbsp lemon juice
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 Tbsp Extravagonzo Roasted Garlic Culinary Oil
- 2 cloves Catch a Fire Jalapeno Garlic, minced
- 2 teaspoons Chef J’s Moroccan Spice Rub
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 1/2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breasts
METHOD
1 Mix the marinade ingredients (yogurt, lemon juice, cilantro, Extravagonzo Roasted Garlic Culinary Oil, Catch a Fire Jalapeno Garlic, Chef J’s Moroccan Spice Rub, cinnamon, salt, and pepper) together in a medium sized bowl. Add the chicken pieces to the bowl and thoroughly coat with the marinade. Cover with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator from 2 hours to overnight.
2 Heat your grill on high heat if you are using a gas grill, or prepare coals for direct heat if you are using charcoal. Allow for one side of the grill to be the “cool” side. If you do not have a grill you can use a cast-iron grill pan on your stove.
Grill the chicken breasts over direct high heat a couple of minutes on one side. Then turn them over and move them to the cool side of the grill. Cover and cook for a few minutes more, until the chicken is cooked through.
