Ingredients

  • 4 Chicken Breasts
  • 3 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 2 cloves Garlic minced
  • 2 tsp Rosemary chopped
  • 1 Lemon juiced
  • 1 cup Cherry Tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup Olives sliced
  • 1/2 cup White Wine
  • Salt and Pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Start by marinating the chicken breasts with olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, and lemon juice.
  • Allow it to rest in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to absorb the flavors.
  • Preheat your grill for both direct and indirect heat.
  • Make sure the grill is hot before placing the chicken on it.
  • Once the grill is ready, place the marinated chicken directly over the heat, searing each side for about 4 to 5 minutes.
  • The goal is to achieve a nice, golden brown color on the outside.
  • Move the chicken to the indirect heat side.
  • Add the cherry tomatoes, sliced olives, and white wine to the grill.
  • Close the lid and let everything cook for another 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Check if the internal temperature of the chicken has reached 165°F.
  • Once cooked, season with salt and pepper before serving.
