For regular chicken cutlets (white meat), I just marinade for a few minutes in oil, drop of lemon juice, a little salt, pepper, and garlic powder.

the trick is not to overcook them or they will be dry. Grill them just a few minutes on the first side, and like 2-3 minutes the other side. Babysit them. If they are looking cooked on the first side, flip them, and then take them off ASAP. As long as you don't overgrill, they will be delicious.

Chicken cutlets - I assume you mean boneless chicken breasts need to be cooked over indirect heat if you are grilling. Otherwise you will burn the exterior and have a raw interior.

When I grill chicken I put the chicken to one side NOT over the coals or whatever is the source of heat. The chicken also needs to be covered while it is being grilled so put the cover down on your grill.

As an approximation, it takes about 15 minutes to cook a standard chicken breast and I flip halfway through.

This is the best recipe for making juicy tasty grilled chicken breasts. I marinate them for a day to intensify the flavor. I like them so much I always make a lot of extras as they are super delicious as leftovers for any purpose.
