Outdoor Gourmet Cedar Planked Lemon Herb Chicken
Sometimes I don’t want to leave the house- like no interest whatsoever in going anywhere, including the grocery store. Zip, zilch, zero motivation to walk beyond the property line. But I still have to eat. Enter this week’s rousing game of “I’m going to plank whatever I have around the house.” This is a variation on my “Good or Weird” game.
This round was made easy by some nice, sturdy staples in the fridge- chicken breasts / thighs, garlic, basil, and a lemon. This is going to painless and delicious. And best of all… no leaving the premises. So here’s what do.
Ingredients
-1 Outdoor Gourmet Grilling Plank, soaked for an hour or more.
- 2-3 Chicken breasts
- 4 tbs. fresh basil, chopped
- Lemon, zested and juiced
- 1 tbs. garlic, minced
- Dash of olive oil
- Salt + Pepper to taste
Directions
First: Soak your Outdoor Gourmet Cedar Plank for an hour or more.
Marinade chicken in the all other ingredients for an hour or more.
Then: Preheat the grill to medium-high (350- 400°).
Next: Place chicken on the planks and add to grill. The planks will smoke, smolder, crackle and pop! That's good. That's where the flavor comes from. Grill chicken for 15 minutes, or until the juices run clear.
Finally: Carefully remove from the grill. Serve with lemon. And enjoy at home. No need to go anywhere.
