Grilled Lemon Pesto Chicken: Tender chicken breasts marinated in zesty lemon and aromatic basil pesto, grilled to perfection and served with your choice of sides for a delicious and nutritious meal.
In a small bowl, combine the zesty lemon juice with the flavorful basil pesto.
Place your chicken breasts in a Ziploc bag or mixing bowl and let them soak up the delicious pesto marinade for at least an hour, or even better, overnight!
Fire up your grill to medium-high heat. Grill the chicken for about 5 to 7 minutes on each side, making sure it’s fully cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F.
Once done, let the chicken rest for a few minutes, then slice into strips. Serve with your favorite sides like grilled veggies, potato salad, or a fresh side salad, and dig in!
