Easy Pomegranate Molasses Grilled Chicken: An Incredible 7-Step Recipe


  • Author: Chef Mia
  • Total Time: 48 minute

Ingredients

– 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– ½ cup pomegranate molasses
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 3 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon salt
– ½ teaspoon black pepper
– 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
– Juice of 1 lemon
– Fresh pomegranate seeds (for garnish)
– Chopped parsley (for garnish)


Instructions

Creating Easy Pomegranate Molasses Grilled Chicken is simple when you follow these steps:

1. Prepare Marinade: In a large bowl, combine the pomegranate molasses, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, and lemon juice. Whisk until well combined.

2. Marinate Chicken: Add the chicken breasts to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes (or up to 2 hours for deeper flavor).

3. Preheat Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, about 400°F (200°C).

4. Grill Chicken: Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the leftover marinade. Place the chicken on the grill, cooking for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

5. Rest Chicken: Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, making the chicken more tender.

6. Garnish: Slice the chicken and arrange it on a serving plate. Sprinkle fresh pomegranate seeds and chopped parsley on top for added color and flavor.

7. Serve: Enjoy your Easy Pomegranate Molasses Grilled Chicken hot, perhaps alongside a refreshing salad or some grilled vegetables.
