Never Think About What to Make for Dinner for the Next Two Months with My Lazy Cooking Bundle
This grilled chicken breast has the perfect flavor thanks to a beer marinade!
I love to cook but on some days it is simply too beautiful outside to want to stay inside. Good weather doesn’t seem to diminish appetites, however.
In fact, I think sunshine might make appetites grow! Those are the days I pull out our grill and enjoy the best of both worlds.
At our former home, we had a great backyard setup for grilling. Not only was there a deck, we also built a pergola. None of that is in place at our new house yet but I still have my grill—and I know how to use it.
For dinner I grilled beer marinated chicken breasts (served with cornbread or cheese biscuits.) Awesome taste and it’s ridiculously simple. The crowds roared!

Well, at least Mike and Sam were super appreciative. Compliments are a good way to ensure grilled dinners keep coming.
I have smart guys.
Ingredients for Grilled Chicken Breast
Great seasoning helps make a great meal. For this grilled chicken breast marinade, I’m using just two ingredients!
A packet of KC Masterpiece BBQ Sauce Mix & Dry Rub plus beer.
It’s versatile because you can use it as a dry rub or combine with a favorite liquid — like beer or juice — to customize the flavor to make it your own creation.
How to Grill Chicken Breast
I like to marinade my meat overnight so the flavor has plenty of time to soak in.
I fire up my grill and put the chicken on, evenly spacing the meat apart.
How Long to Grill Chicken Breast
Grill over direct, medium heat for 6-8 minutes on each side. Internal temp should reach 165 degrees.
This easy dinner is a favorite for us that we have often in the warmer months while we spend a lot of time outside.
I’ve served it with this Macaroni Salad and steamed veggies — everyone loves it. This Classic Coleslaw also makes the perfect side dish!
