For many people Memorial Day weekend is considered the official start of the grilling season.  Folks are digging our their grills, locating their tongs and spatulas, exchanging propane tanks, and purchasing charcoal in anticipation of the coming weekend.  For many of us this will be the first three-day weekend in a long time and with warmer weather it is a natural that everyone is ready to get outside and grill.  I however am one of those crazy people who insist on grilling year-round.  Like the postal motto, neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night keeps me from my grill, and over the years I have found there is almost nothing that can not be prepared on the grill.

While I do love a good burger and always enjoy a brat there are so many options for grilling I thought this coming holiday weekend would be a good reason to share some of my favorite things to grill.  So get your charcoal stocked or your tanks filled and enjoy some time with your family and friends.  Fire up the grill and cook with confidence and know what ever you decide to prepare you will make it memorable.

I also hope this weekend that everyone will take some time to remember the reason for this holiday, the memory of the countless men and women who have gave their lives during active military duty as well as those who currently serve.

The post Grilled Rosemary Lemon Chicken first appeared on James & Everett.]]> rosemary chix 4bRosemary and lemon are two flavors that seem to just naturally work well together, like a hand and a glove, or maybe Steve Lawrence & Eydie Gorme. The brightness of the citrus amplifies the earthy freshness of the herb, bringing what ever dish they appear together in alive. One of my favorite ways to incorporate this dynamic duo is to use it in a marinade for grilled poultry. Add some garlic, and you have the most amazing tasting, mouth-watering chicken ever. What a perfect way to bring a new twist to your grilled bird.

Grilled Rosemary Lemon Chicken

Tender chicken marinated with lemon, garlic, and fresh Rosemary grilled to perfection.
Course Main Course
Cuisine Mediterranean
Prep Time 40 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 1 hour
Servings 8

Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice about 2 lemons
  • 1/4 cup olive oil plus more for grill grates and drizzling
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh rosemary
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 6 - 8 boneless skinless chicken thighs or breast
  • 1 lemon sliced in half, garnish

Instructions

  • Whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, mustard, rosemary, garlic and a big pinch of salt and pepper in a measuring cup. Let stand for about an hour at room temperature to allow the lemon time to mingle with the garlic and herbs.
  • Add chicken to a gallon-size zip top bag or casserole dish and pour the marinade over the chicken. Turn bag to coat and let the chicken marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes (or 1 hour in the refrigerator).
  • Tip: Longer is not necessarily better when using citrus based marinades. The lemon juice will actually begin to cook the meat the same way it does in the method used to make ceviche.
  • Heat a grill to medium-high. Brush the grill grates with a wire brush to clean, and wipe the grill with olive oil using a clean tea towel or paper towel.
  • Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade.
  • Place the chicken on the grill and cook until golden and slightly charred, about 3 minutes per side.
  • Place the lemon halves cut-side down on the grill grate and grill until charred, about 4 minutes.
  • Squeeze some of the grilled lemon over the chicken and allow to rest for about 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

This marinade also works well for grilling pork.
