Method
- Zest and juice your oranges, lemon, and limes into a large mixing bowl. Add minced garlic, shallots, olive oil, brown sugar, salt, pepper, rosemary, parsley, and red pepper flakes. Whisk until fully combined.
- Divide the marinade in half. Set one half aside in a small bowl or jar to use as your glaze base later.
- Lightly pound chicken breasts to an even thickness or butterfly them in half. Place into the first half of the marinade and coat well.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and no longer than 4 hours. Do not over-marinate or the acid will break down the chicken texture.
- Pour the reserved marinade half into a small saucepan with 2 tbsp honey. Stir and bring to a low simmer over medium-low heat. Cook for 5 to 6 minutes until thickened and glossy. Remove from heat and let cool.
- Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Brush grates lightly with oil.
- Remove chicken from the marinade, letting excess drip off. Grill for 6 to 7 minutes per side until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F at the thickest part.
- During the last 1 to 2 minutes of grilling, brush the glaze over each piece. Flip once to coat both sides and allow the glaze to caramelize.
- Transfer chicken to a plate and rest for 3 to 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
Do not marinate longer than 4 hours or the citrus acid will break down the chicken. If not making the glaze, you can halve the marinade recipe. Leftovers keep well for up to 3 days and taste great in grain bowls or wraps.
