Steps
Step 1
It’s great to get to know your local butcher to get the highest quality meats. Pound chicken breasts to 1/2” thickness.
Ingredients
4 chicken breasts
Step 2
Rub chicken breasts with olive oil. Combine citrus juices, cumin, salt, and pepper and rub mixture evenly onto chicken breasts and let marinade at least 1 hour (or overnight).
Ingredients
2 Teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 lemon, juiced
1 lime, juiced
1 orange, juiced
4 Teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 Teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 Teaspoon Pepper
Step 3
When ready to cook, set the Traeger to 350℉ and preheat, lid closed for 15 minutes.
350 ˚F / 177 ˚C
Step 4
Place chicken on the grill and cook until grill marks have formed and chicken is cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer should read 165℉ in the thickest part of the chicken breast.
