Boneless Chicken Breast

Tired of plain old barbecued chicken? Try this nice unique combination of rosemary and black olives and wake up your taste buds.

Ingredients

• 4 boneless skinless chicken breast halves

***Black Olive Sauce***

• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 2 tbsp. black olive tapenade
• 1 tbsp. fresh squeezed lemon juice
• 1 tsp. fine chopped rosemary
• 1/4 tsp. fresh ground pepper

***Marinade***

• 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
• 1 tbsp fresh rosemary, minced
• 1 tbsp. fresh squeezed lemon juice
• 1 tbsp. Dijon mustard
• 2 tsp. minced garlic
• 1 tsp. salt
• 1/4 tsp fresh ground pepper

Directions

1. Mix together marinade ingredients in small bowl. Save woody stems of rosemary branches for the charcoal. Coat chicken breasts with marinade and allow to sit covered and refrigerated for 1 hour.
2. Whisk together sauce ingredients until a smooth consistency is achieved. Cover and refrigerate until needed.
3. 3. Fire up grill until temperature is at medium heat (350°F).
4. 4. Place rosemary branches on lit charcoal. Grill chicken directly over the medium heat, keeping the lid closed as often as possible. Continue cooking until meat is firm and lacks pink color. This should take approximately 8-12 minutes. Turn meat over once or twice as needed in order to achieve even cooking. When cooked, remove and serve with previously prepared sauce.
