This grilled chicken margherita recipe captures all my favorite pizza flavors in a protein-packed, low-carb package. The chicken takes on a gorgeous char from the grill and gains a similar flavor to the crust on a wood-fired pizza. Meanwhile, the rich marinara sauce, basil leaves and mozzarella cheese lend a familiar taste. Finished with garden-fresh tomatoes, artichoke hearts and green onions, this Italian-inspired chicken margherita recipe is one of my favorite summertime grilled chicken recipes<\/a>.<\/p>\n

We make our grilled chicken margherita recipe with balsamic vinaigrette. Marinating the chicken in balsamic dressing ensures the lean meat stays juicy and tender when exposed to the grill’s high heat. Plus, the vinegar has a sweet-and-tangy character that pairs exceptionally well with tomatoes and artichokes.<\/p>\n
