Citrus Chicken Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil plus more for brushing
- 1 cup fresh orange juice
- 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 teaspoons minced fresh rosemary
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt plus more for seasoning
- 4 skin-on, bone-in chicken breasts (2 1/2–3 pounds)
- 2 oranges, cut into quarters
- 2 lemons, cut into quarters
- Fresh parsley leaves
How to Make Citrus Chicken:
-
Whisk 2 Tbsp. oil and next 4 ingredients in a large bowl; stir in 2 tsp. salt.
-
Add chicken breasts; turn chicken to coat, cover, and chill overnight.
-
Build a medium-low fire in a charcoal grill, or heat a gas grill to medium.
-
Remove chicken breasts from marinade; set marinade aside.
-
Place chicken breasts on grill, skin side up.
-
Cover and grill, moving chicken to different spots on the rack for even cooking but without turning, until slightly charred and almost cooked through, about 20 minutes.
-
Turn chicken. Brush orange and lemon quarters with oil and arrange around chicken breasts on grill.
-
Continue grilling until chicken breasts are golden brown and cooked through and orange and lemon quarters are caramelized, 10-15 minutes longer.
-
Meanwhile, bring marinade to a boil in a small saucepan and cook until reduced to glaze consistency (about 1/3 cup); season with salt.
-
Transfer chicken to a platter and surround with grilled oranges and lemons for squeezing over.
-
Spoon glaze over chicken and garnish with parsley.
- Enjoy your citrus chicken meal
