Grilled Za'atar Chicken

Recipesfull introduces to you: Chicken Breast Recipes. (Grilled Za'atar Chicken). Most recipes using za'atar seasoning often incorporate fresh herbs which give the seasoning a green color. I chose to use dry herbs to give a consistent flavor. Most companies now make za'atar seasoning so feel free to use 2 tablespoons za'atar seasoning from Savory Spice Shop® (or other purveyor) or create your own.
