Instructions

1

Prepare the grill

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Ensure the grill is clean and oiled to prevent sticking.

Season the chicken breasts with cumin, chili powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Drizzle with olive oil and rub to coat evenly.

Let the chicken rest with the seasoning for a few minutes to absorb the flavors.
