Tuscan Grilled Chicken
Sep 18th 2025
Sweet-savory Neapolitan Herb Balsamic, zippy citrus, and garlicky olive oil make a glossy marinade that keeps chicken juicy on the grill. Big flavor, simple prep—ideal for weeknights or a backyard cookout.
Ingredients (serves 6)
- 6 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
Marinade
- ¼ cup The Olive Leaf Neapolitan Herb Balsamic
- 3 Tbsp whole-grain mustard
- Juice of 1 lime
- Juice of ½ lemon
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 1½ tsp kosher salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 6 Tbsp The Olive Leaf Garlic Olive Oil
Directions
- Whisk the marinade. In a bowl, whisk balsamic, mustard, lime juice, lemon juice, brown sugar, and salt. Whisk in pepper and Garlic Olive Oil until emulsified.
- Marinate. Reserve ¼ cup marinade for later. Add chicken to the remaining marinade, turn to coat, cover, and refrigerate 8 hours or overnight (minimum 2 hours if short on time).
- Grill. Heat grill to medium (about 400°F) and oil the grates. Grill chicken 6–10 minutes per side (thickness varies) until an instant-read thermometer reads 165°F.
- Glaze & rest. Boil the reserved marinade for 2–3 minutes (food safety), then brush over chicken during the last minute. Rest 5 minutes; slice and serve.
Serve With
- Neapolitan Herb Roasted Vegetables
