Ingredients
Scale
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional for extra heat)
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, whisk together olive oil, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper if using.
- Place the chicken breasts in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring it is well coated.
- Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight, to allow flavors to develop.
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
- Remove chicken from the marinade, letting excess drip off. Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and juices run clear.
- Remove chicken from grill and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
- Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve with your favorite sides.
Notes
For extra smoky flavor, consider adding a dash of liquid smoke to the marinade or grilling over wood chips. Serve with Texas Roadhouse-style sides like seasoned fries or a fresh salad.
