Ingredients

1 (16 ounce) bottle Italian-style salad dressing
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon salt
4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves

Instructions

In a shallow dish, whisk together salad dressing, garlic powder, and salt. Add chicken breasts and turn to coat evenly. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, for maximum flavor.
Preheat your outdoor grill to high heat and lightly oil the grill grate to prevent sticking.
Remove the marinated chicken from the dish, shaking off any excess marinade. Discard the remaining marinade after use.
Grill the chicken on the preheated grill until cooked through and no longer pink inside. The juices should run clear when pierced, about 7 to 8 minutes per side. For best results, use an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the chicken, ensuring it reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
