Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a marinade.

  2. 2

    Add Chicken to Marinade

    Place the chicken breasts in the bowl with the marinade. Ensure that each piece is well-coated. Cover the bowl and let the chicken marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F or 190°C).

  2. 4

    Grill the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it on the grill. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and has nice grill marks.

  3. 5

    Rest the Chicken

    Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for about 5 minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute.

Serving

  1. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Serve the grilled chicken with a sprinkle of chopped fresh parsley and lemon wedges on the side for added flavor.
