1 – Choose quality and start with great chicken like @lilydalefreerange for the best results.
2 – Cut your chicken breasts lengthwise to ensure even cooking.
3 – Create a simple, but flavourful marinade with olive oil, lemon myrtle, garlic, and salt. Let it marinate in the fridge for 1-4 hours.
4 – Grill over high heat to achieve a beautiful sear on the outside without drying out the centre.
5 – Pair with a fresh, vibrant salad (like a Fattoush salad) and enjoy!

Lemon Myrtle and Garlic Grilled Chicken
Ingredients
– 4 @lilydalefreerange chicken breasts
– 3 tbsp olive oil
– 1.5 tsp lemon myrtle
– 3 cloves garlic, finely grated
– 1 tsp salt
Method
1. Slice the chicken breasts in half lengthways so you end up with large flat fillets. Place the sliced chicken breasts in a bowl with the olive oil, lemon myrtle, grated garlic, and salt. Mix well, cover, and leave in the fridge to marinate for 1-4 hours.
2. Preheat your grill to the highest setting and remove the chicken from the fridge.
3. Grill the chicken on both sides, turning every 45-60 seconds, until the chicken is cooked through. This will take roughly 5-6 minutes depending on how hot your grill is.
4. Once you have good colour on both sides and the chicken is cooked through, remove from the grill and place on a wire rack to rest for 3-4 minutes before serving.
