Ingredients

1 lbs chicken breasts

¼ cup orange juice

2 tbsp lemon juice

2 tbsp olive oil

2 tbsp honey

1 tsp salt

½ tsp black pepper

1 clove garlic, minced

1 tsp orange zest

½ tsp lemon zest

Directions

In a small bowl, mix together orange juice, lemon juice, olive oil, honey, salt, pepper, minced garlic, orange zest, and lemon zest to create the glaze.

Place the chicken breasts in a resealable bag and pour half of the glaze over the chicken. Seal the bag and marinate for at least 30 minutes.

Heat the grill to medium-high heat. Once heated, place the marinated chicken breasts on the grill and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side.

Use the remaining glaze to brush over the chicken during the last few minutes of grilling. Ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F before removing from grill.

Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving to retain juiciness. Serve with your choice of fresh salad or grilled vegetables.
