  • Author: Chef Ethan Sam
  • Total Time: 33 minute

Ingredients

– 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
– 2 tablespoons sumac
– 4 cloves garlic, minced
– 1/4 cup olive oil
– 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
– 1 teaspoon paprika
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
– Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
– Lemon wedges (for serving)


Instructions

Creating Mediterranean Sumac Chicken is straightforward. Follow these steps for a guaranteed success:

1. Prep the Chicken: Start by trimming any excess fat from the chicken breasts.
2. Make the Marinade: In a bowl, combine sumac, minced garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, paprika, salt, and pepper.
3. Marinate the Chicken: Place chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or dish and pour the marinade over. Ensure they’re well-coated. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for better flavor.
4. Preheat Your Grill or Oven: If grilling, preheat your grill to medium-high. For baking, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
5. Cook the Chicken: If grilling, place the chicken on the grill and cook for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). If baking, arrange the chicken on a baking sheet and bake for 20-25 minutes.
6. Rest the Chicken: Once cooked, remove the chicken from the heat and let it rest for about 5 minutes to retain its juices.
7. Slice and Serve: Slice the chicken breasts and garnish with fresh parsley and lemon wedges.

These simple yet effective steps will guide you in making an incredible Mediterranean dish that’s bursting with flavor!
