Ingredients:

Ingredient Quantity
Dijon mustard 1/2 cup
Maple syrup 1/4 cup
White vinegar 2 tbsp
Skinless chicken breast halves 4 pieces
Ground pepper to taste
Salt to taste

Instructions:

  1. In a small bowl, combine the Dijon mustard, maple syrup, and white vinegar, stirring well to ensure all ingredients are thoroughly mixed; set aside this delectable marinade mixture.

  2. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 350-400 degrees Fahrenheit, ensuring the grates are clean and well-oiled to prevent sticking.

  3. Lightly coat the chicken breast halves with cooking spray, then season with ground pepper and salt according to your taste preferences, ensuring each piece is evenly seasoned.

  4. Prepare your grill rack by coating it with cooking spray to prevent the chicken from sticking during the cooking process.

  5. Once the grill is preheated and ready, place the seasoned chicken breast halves onto the grill rack, ensuring they are spaced apart to allow for even cooking.

  6. Grill the chicken uncovered for approximately 15 minutes, turning occasionally and basting generously with the prepared mustard mixture to infuse each piece with delightful flavor.

  7. After 15 minutes, flip the chicken breast halves over using tongs to ensure they cook evenly on both sides, then continue grilling for an additional 15 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 180 degrees Fahrenheit, as measured with a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the chicken.

  8. Throughout the grilling process, continue basting the chicken with the remaining mustard mixture at regular intervals to lock in moisture and enhance the flavor profile.

  9. Once fully cooked, remove the Maple-Mustard Grilled Chicken from the grill and transfer to a serving platter, allowing it to rest for a few minutes before serving to ensure maximum juiciness and tenderness.

  10. Serve hot and enjoy the succulent and flavorful Maple-Mustard Grilled Chicken alongside your favorite side dishes or atop a bed of crisp salad greens for a wholesome and satisfying meal that’s sure to impress even the most discerning palates.

Bon Appétit! 🍁🐔🔥
