1. I’m sorry to hear the recipe wasn’t to your taste, Karen. I know it’s disappointing to try a new recipe and not enjoy it. I (and many other readers) have enjoyed it, so I really wish they would’ve been a hit for you too! Did you use kosher salt? All seasonings can definitely be adjusted to your preference.

  • This is an AMAZING recipe. O love yhe flavors and the tenderizing effects on the chicken breasts. I am about to make again for tonight!! Thanks so much!5 stars

  • We just made these. So good! We even forgot the lemon juice. This is my new go to recipe for grilled chicken!5 stars

  • This was the best and most tender chicken ever. I didn’t have all the ingredients so I improvised but it was awesome!5 stars

  • I’ve never reviewed a recipe in my life. This is the most flavorful marinade I’ve ever tasted. I only marinated for 15 minutes and it was enough. The pounding of the chicken although slight made a difference. Piercing the chicken also was a good tip. Printing this! PS While it was on the salty side it was fine bc I love that. Adjusting the salt to taste should alleviate any picky comments.5 stars

  • Absolutely delicious!! Quick and simple recipe with amazing flavor. Only change I made was replaced oregano with italian seasoning.5 stars

  • Great marinade; I thought you had a dry brine recipe for chicken, but I could not find it.
    But this was great. thanks!5 stars

  • Making this for second time today. Surprisingly good! It wasn’t overwhelmingly lemon and herb, the other additions round it out nicely. I use coconut aminos in place of soy sauce, cut the amount of thyme in half because we’re sensitive to it, and cut the amount of salt in half too since our sea salt is finer than kosher salt. Really yummy on the grill!5 stars

  • Hi
    What is the sodium amount in this recipe. I was surprised that I didn’t see it, since you have alot other information.

    1. Hi Constance, I stopped including sodium info because it can vary so much depending upon what products you used, and I found a lot of conflicting info online, so ultimately I didn’t feel comfortable publishing it because sometimes it wasn’t even in the ballpark. If you’d like to calculate it yourself, there are lots of free tools online (myfitnesspal.com is popular). I hope that helps!

  • Loved this! I didn’t have any thyme so used a teaspoon of Herbs de Provance instead. Absolutely delicious 😋5 stars

  • No kidding, this really was the best chicken marinade I’d ever prepared. 5 stars from everyone in the family!5 stars
