Barbecue Rosemary Chicken

Ingredients

  • 2 tsp Olive Oil
  • 1 tsp Lemon Zest
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 clove medium garlic minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh rosemary chopped
  • 1/8 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp pepper
  • 2 4oz. boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
  • 1 nonstick cooking spray
  • 3 tbsp barbeque sauce (lowest sodium available)
  • 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tsp honey

Directions

  1. In a nonmetallic bowl, stir together the oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, garlic, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken, turning to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 8 hours. If marinating for more than 30 minutes, turn several times.
  2. Lightly spray the grill rack with cooking spray. Preheat the grill on medium heat.
  3. Grill the chicken for 4 to 5 minutes on each side, or until no longer pink in the center. (The internal temperature should reach at least 165 degrees F). Transfer to plates.
  4. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, whisk together the barbecue sauce, vinegar, and honey. Cook over medium-low heat for 3 to 4 minutes, or until heated through, stirring occasionally. Spoon the mixture over the cooked chicken.
