Smoky Grilled Chicken Filets (Great for Meal Prep!)

Step 1

Pound chicken to even thickness and cut into 8 fillets. Use a meat mallet or rolling pin to create more of a fillet shape, if desired. Add chicken to a large bowl or Ziplock bag with Italian dressing and toss to coat. Marinate for at least 30 minutes.

Step 2

Preheat the grill to 450 degrees F or to medium-high heat.

Step 3

In a small bowl, flat dish (big enough to dip the chicken in) combine the lemon juice, honey, and liquid smoke.

Step 4

Dip one fillet at a time into the lemon-honey marinade. Make sure to coat on both sides, then add to the greased grill.

Step 5

Cook for 5-7 minutes, then flip chicken fillets. Cook for another 5-7 minutes or until chicken has cooked through*. Cooking time will depend on the thickness of your chicken.

Step 6

Preheat air fryer to 350F. Spray air fryer basket then add chicken in a single layer (so they are not overlapping). Cook for 4-5 minutes, then flip and cook another 4-5 minutes or until chicken is cooked through*.

Step 7

To cook on Stovetop:Heat a skillet to medium-high heat. Spray with nonstick cooking spray (or use a little oil). Add chicken. Cook for 5-7 minutes without moving. Flip chicken, spray again (or add more oil) and cook for another 5 or so minutes or until cooked through*.
