Marinade and Chicken

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Place the boneless chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  4. 4

    Grill the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade. Grill the chicken breasts for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) and are no longer pink in the center.

  5. 5

    Rest and Serve

    Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve warm.
