Ingredients

  • 4 Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts
  • 1 1/2 cups Buttermilk
  • 1 teaspoon Onion Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • 1 Tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 Tablespoon Honey
  • 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon Cayenne Pepper

Instructions

  • Stir together the buttermilk, onion powder, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, honey, olive oil and cayenne pepper in a bowl.
  • Place the chicken in a ziplock bag and pour the buttermilk mixture on top.
  • Allow the chicken to marinade for at least 1 hour or up to 24 hours.
  • Preheat the grill to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Brush the grill grates with oil to prevent the chicken from sticking.
  • Once the grill is hot, place the chicken on the grill, skin side down.
  • Cook the chicken for 5-7 minutes on each side until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.
  • Move the chicken from the grill to a separate plate, let the chicken sit for 5 minutes. Then it’s ready to slice and enjoy!

Notes

The cook times will vary based on the size of the chicken. Make sure to use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken is cooked to the correct temperature.
Store any leftover chicken in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4-5 days.
