Grilled Chicken Breasts with Lemon and Thyme

Ingredients

1 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice

1/4 teaspoon dried thyme

1/2 teaspoon dried red-pepper flakes

1 clove garlic, minced

1/4 cup olive oil

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon fresh-ground black pepper

4 bone-in chicken breasts (about 2 1/4 pounds in all)

Directions

Light the grill or heat the broiler. In a shallow dish, combine the lemon juice with the thyme, red-pepper flakes, garlic, oil, salt, and black pepper. Coat the chicken with the mixture.

Grill the chicken breasts over moderately high heat or broil them for 8 to 10 minutes. Turn and cook until the chicken is just done, about 10 minutes longer.
