Step 1

Prepare the Chicken: Start with your thin chicken cutlets. If you haven't already, follow the instructions above to pound your chicken to an even thickness of about 1/4 inch.

Step 2

Marinate the Chicken: Combine olive oil, garlic, dried herbs and vinegar in a large deep shallow dish. Season chicken on both sides with salt and black pepper then add to the marinade.

Step 3

Make sure they’re evenly coated then, cover and marinate at least 30 minutes, but preferably up to 2 hours for better flavor. Or as long as overnight.

Step 4

Preheat Your Grill: Heat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. If you're using a charcoal grill, wait until the coals are covered with white ash.

Step 5

Grill the Chicken: Once your grill is heated, oil the grates and add the chicken cutlets. Grill the chicken for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until browned and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Because the cutlets are thin, they will cook quickly. Be careful not to overcook them, as chicken can become dry if cooked too long.

Step 6

Rest and Serve: Once cooked, let the chicken rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the chicken, making it more tender and flavorful.
