Grilled Lemon-Rosemary Chicken and Leeks

Grilled Lemon Rosemary Chicken & Leeks, thanks to my George Foreman Grille! Ready in just 20 minutes, this juicy grilled chicken is complimented by the sweet flavor of grilled leeks. Give it a try, you’ll love it.


Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest

  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary, plus more lfor garnish

  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided

  • 4 (4-oz.) chicken breast cutlets

  • 4 large leeks, trimmed and halved

  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, cubed

  • 2 garlic cloves, sliced

  • 1 lemon, halved


How to Make It

Step 1

Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high (about 450°F). Combine lemon zest, lemon juice, rosemary, salt, pepper, and 1 tablespoon oil in a large ziplock bag. Add chicken to bag and seal. Turn bag to coat chicken with marinade. Set aside at room temperature.

Step 2

Brush leeks with remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Place leeks, cut sides down, on grill grate; grill, uncovered, until grill marks form, 6 to 7 minutes. Transfer leeks to a large piece of aluminum foil. Sprinkle with butter and garlic; fold up edges of foil to seal.


Step 3

Place chicken, lemon halves, and foil packet on grill grates. Grill chicken until cooked through and grill marks form, 2 to 3 minutes per side. To serve, squeeze lemon over chicken and leeks. Garnish with rosemary.
