Marinate the Chicken: In a mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, adobo seasoning, and minced garlic. Mix well. Coat each chicken breast evenly with the mixture. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes. Marinating it overnight will deepen the flavors for an authentic Puerto Rican touch.
Preheat the Grill: Heat your grill to a medium-high temperature. This is key for getting those beautiful grill marks and ensuring the chicken cooks evenly.
Grill the Chicken: Once the grill is hot, place the chicken breasts on it. Grill for about 10 minutes on each side. The goal is to achieve a nice, golden-brown color with slight char marks for added flavor.
Check the Temperature: Use a meat thermometer to ensure your Chicken is cooked perfectly. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (75°C). This step is crucial for both safety and taste.
Rest the Chicken: After grilling, let the chicken rest for about 5 minutes. This allows the juices to be redistributed, ensuring each bite is succulent and flavorful.
