    GRILL DIRECTIONS: In small bowl, combine oil, wine, rosemary, sage, chives, salt and pepper; mix well. Place chicken breast halves in resealable food storage plastic bag. Pour oil mixture over chicken. Seal bag; turn to coat. Refrigerate at least 2 hours to marinate, turning occasionally.
  • 2
    Heat grill. When ready to grill, remove chicken from marinade; reserve marinade. Place chicken on gas grill over medium heat or on charcoal grill 4 to 6 inches from medium coals; cover grill. Cook 10 to 15 minutes or until chicken is fork-tender and juices run clear, turning once and brushing occasionally with reserved marinade. Discard any remaining marinade.

  • To broil chicken, place on broiler pan; broil 4 to 6 inches from heat using times above as a guide, turning once and brushing occasionally with reserved marinade.
  • A marinade can flavor and/or tenderize meat. Since chicken breast is a tender cut of meat, the marinade in this recipe is solely for the purpose of adding flavor.
  • Use a kitchen shears to quickly snip or chop fresh herbs.
  • For even cooking place the narrowest or smallest ends of the chicken breast halves to outside edges of the grill where the heat is usually a bit less intense.
