This week’s #SundaySupper theme is, your favorite celebrity chef. Now it is super hard for me to pick just one. I was debating about 7 different chef’s whose recipes I wanted to try, but then on Thanksgiving we ordered a new grill from Lowes (a Christmas present from my inlaws, thanks! We love it) and I knew I needed to do a grilling recipe on it.
Who better to turn to than the king of grilling, Mr. Bobby Flay. I searched through all his top recipes on the FoodNetwork.com to find one that didn’t require 5 million ingredients, you know I like to keep things simple. Finally I found this Rosemary Bricked Chicken. Five ingredients (not counting the salt and pepper) and I had most of them at home already.
I did make one slight change to the recipe and that was, instead of using whole butterflied chickens I just used chicken leg quarters, skin on. They are typically on sale for $.99/lb and I didn’t want to butterfly a whole chicken myself.
The flavors of the dish were perfect. I’m usually one to peel off the skin, but I actually ate most of this because it was just so delicious. I know in many parts of the country it’s probably not grilling weather, but with nights in the high 60’s it is perfect grilling weather here. Keep this one in your file until it warms up!
- 1 cup olive oil
- ¼ cup fresh lemon juice
- 6 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary leaves
- 4 chicken leg quarters
- Salt and pepper
- In a large Ziploc bag combine olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and rosemary. Add chicken and allow to marinate 1 to 4 hours.
- Preheat grill to medium. Wrap 4 bricks in aluminum foil. Remove chicken from marinade and blot of excess oil. Season with salt and pepper.
- Place chicken on the grill, skin side down, place one brick on top of each piece of chicken.
- Grill 5-7 minutes, turn over, place bricks back on top and grill another 5-7 minutes. Check to make sure internal temperature is at 165 degrees.
- Let rest 5 to 10 minutes and serve.

Perfectly grilled chicken Lane! It looks just fabulous. Time for me to go out and pick some rosemary and use it for this recipe.
Bricks are a great trick for using at home. At work we sometimes use steak weights! A great simple recipe!
This chicken looks delicious. You did a beautiful job with it. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
I love a simple yet flavorful dish and this one fits that bill! Thank you for sharing… Can’t wait to try it!
This sounds amazing!!!! Bobby Flay has such great grilling recipes…and I love rosemary…this is a great combination!
Your chicken looks gorgeous! The flavors sound perfect together, and Bobby Flay is a master at grilling, so definitely a good choice!
Love Bobby Flay and I have actually seen him do this with a brick. Have to try this, great recipe!!
Sounds yummy to me! Nice and easy is right up my alley! Thanks for sharing!!
Passing along the brick idea to my grillmaster. It’s still grilling weather here too!
Love rosemary chicken and this looks fab ! I could just eat the chicken off your page
! Thanks for sharing. Will be making this.
!
BTW, I started using the DSLR since two weeks actually. Thanks ! Still getting the hang of it though
I have had my camera for about a year and a half and I am still getting the hang of it! It takes a lot of time and practice
We’ve made this several times. It’s definitely a favorite in this house!
Oh this looks delicious!! Love how easy it looks and my goodness your photos make me want to lick the screen. Yum! Perfect recipe friend!
It is grilling season here and butterflied chicken is a must if you´re not barbecuing meat. It looks amazingly crispy and the marinade is so simple! Love this recipe Lane!
This is a great recipe! I made it a few years ago…don’t know why I haven’t since. Thanks for the reminder!
Love Bobby, and I have always wanted to try a bricked chicken. I should definitely go to the master for that!
I remember seeing him do this on TV and always marveled at it, good on you for making it!
I’m loving the crispy skin on that chicken!
Bobby Flay is the grill master for a reason this chicken looks amazing. Making me miss Summer already.
The chicken looks perfect. I love a good simple recipe. I agree with you that even though I love Bobby Flay I don’t want to buy the entire spice isle for one dish. Perfect skin!
That chicken looks perfect and I have always wanted to try chicken under a brick!! Pinning
What a fun recipe! I can’t wait to use bricks in my chicken! Thanks for the inspiration.
I think I’m going to have to fire up the grill again! Love this!
Beautiful dish Lane! I am putting this on my list of dishes to try
Perfection in simplicity! I’ll definitely hold on to this one for the summer time!
OK, B. Flay would have definitely been my second runner up for my fave celebrity chef. . not only b/c the man can cook and grill BUT also b/c I have a HUGE crush on him!
This chicken looks amazing! you know, up until a year ago, I never marinated my chicken. I have no idea why. . now, I do it all the time. Tastes so much better!! Love this!
