Ingredients
| 2-4 | pc | Chicken Breast (I buy organic chicken) |
| 1 | tbs | Olive oil |
| 1 | pc | Lemon (I use organic lemon) |
| 4 | twigs | thyme |
| 4 | twigs | Rosemary |
| 1 | pc | Garlic clove (I like to use young garlic) |
| 6 | pinches | Salt |
| 2-4 | pinches | Pepper |
| 1 | tsp | brown sugar |
Instruction
Grill Preparation
Preheat the grill, clean the grill with a wire brush and rub with oil.
Plucking herbs
Wash, dry and pluck the rosemary and thyme.
Lemon peel
Finely grate the zest of the lemon and add to the herbs.
Chopping herbs
Finely chop the herbs and lemon peel.
Garlic
Peel and finely chop the garlic.
Marinating
Wash the poultry meat under cold running water and dry it.
Clean the chicken breasts, cut out the veins and cut the meat into strips.
You can remove the skin or leave it on the meat.
I bought chicken filets without skin.
Marinate the meat with oil, herbs, garlic and lemon peel.
Let it mature for 10 minutes.
Grill meat
Heat the grill grate sufficiently and brush with oil.
Place the meat side by side and cook.
Serving
Turn the chicken pieces once and cook until juicy.
Season the meat with salt, pepper and some sugar.
Quickly put them on the plate and serve. Bon appetite!
Herb Tip:
You can also use dried herbs or frozen herbs for this dish.
Meat Tip:
Instead of chicken meat you can also use turkey breast or turkey schnitzel.
You can also cut the meat smaller and put it on skewers. This makes turning easier!

3.Grill Chicken Whole or in Chicken Pieces?
The garden grill with grill grid is not necessarily optimal for the preparation of whole poultry. A revolving spit would be an option, indirect grilling is definitely the order of the day.
Indirect grilling means: Push the barbecue embers to the side and grill with the lid on. You create an area where there is no glowing coal underneath. The food is cooked from the side and is less exposed to the intense heat. I have made a small sketch for you:
I would like to have it practical and faster today and already have my chicken pieces released and prepared.
This is much faster and requires less effort. Then there is still time for a campfire. A campfire?
Yes, this year I bought a fire bowl and converted it into a grill. First grill with coal, then add wood and enjoy the campfire! Here some impressions…
If it has to go fast, grill chicken parts in pieces. If your time allows you to grill indirectly in whole!
