Grilled Garlic Pepper Chicken

 

I love grilled chicken.  I love grilling chicken.  I must say that I am a pretty good chicken griller....ok, I don't actually think that is a word, but I think you see what I'm getting at.  I have perfected the art of grilling...so my goal this summer is to perfect the art of marinating and/or seasoning my grilled chicken.  This recipe was my first attempt since this goal was made...and boy was it a winner!  Yum!  The chicken has this great spice to it due to the pepper...and then there's that subtle garlic flavor that hits you ...mmmmm..... I think I may have to toot my own horn here... TOOT TOOT :)

Seriously though, if you want something simple for the grill on a week night... you have got to try this recipe.
