Maple Rosemary Grilled Chicken

INGREDIENTS

INSTRUCTIONS

1. First, in a small bowl, combine maple syrup, soy sauce, 2 tablespoons olive oil, shallot, rosemary, lemon juice, Dijon and garlic; season with salt and pepper, to taste.


2. Next, in a gallon-size Ziploc bag, combine maple syrup mixture and chicken; marinate for at least 30 minutes to overnight, turning the bag occasionally. Drain the chicken from the marinade, discarding the marinade.
   Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.


3. Then, brush the chicken with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Add chicken to grill, and cook, turning occasionally, until chicken is completely cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, about 10 minutes.


4. Lastly, serve immediately, garnished with rosemary, if desired.

Grilled Chicken Offers Health Benefits:

1. Lean Protein Source: Chicken breast, especially when grilled without excessive added fats, is a lean protein source. It helps build and repair tissues, supports muscle health, and aids in weight management as it's low in saturated fats.


2. Nutrient-Rich: It's a good source of essential nutrients like vitamins B6 and B3, which are crucial for metabolism and energy production. It also contains minerals like phosphorus, which is important for bone health, and selenium, an antioxidant.


3. Low in Calories: Grilled chicken, particularly skinless chicken breast, is relatively low in calories compared to other protein sources. This makes it a good choice for those watching their calorie intake.


4. Heart Health: As a lean protein, grilled chicken can be a part of a heart-healthy diet. It's lower in saturated fats compared to red meats, potentially reducing the risk of heart disease when incorporated into a balanced diet.


5. Weight Management: Its high protein content can help increase satiety and reduce hunger, which may aid in weight management by controlling appetite and preventing overeating.


6. Versatility: Grilled chicken can be prepared in various ways, allowing for a range of flavors and marinades without adding excessive calories or unhealthy fats.
