Lemony Herb Grilled Chicken

Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- grapeseed oil, for drizzling
- kosher salt, to taste
- freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
- 1 1/2 cups loosely packed soft herbs such as basil, thyme, oregano, parsley, cilantro and tarragon
- 1 garlic clove
- 1 lemon
- 1/4 tsp. red chili flakes
- 1/4-1/3 cup EVOO
Directions
Bring a grill up to medium high heat.
To a gallon sized resealable bag add 1 breast. Using a rolling pin or the flat side of a meat tenderizer pound the breast to 1/2 inch thick.
Remove to a bowl and continue with remaining breasts.
Drizzle with grapeseed oil and liberally season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
Grill 5-7 minutes per side or until cooked through. Remove and let rest.
To a mini food processor add the herbs, garlic, lemon zest, a large pinch of salt and pepper, chili flakes and 1/4 cup of EVOO. Blitz until a chunky sauce forms, adding more oil until desired consistency.
Cut the zested lemon in half and place on the grill until charred, about 3 minutes.
Plate up the chicken on a platter, drizzle with the sauce and squeeze over the grilled lemon.
