Marinade

Chicken

Method

Marinating the Chicken

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a large bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well blended.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Add the chicken breasts to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 8 hours for more flavor.

Grilling the Chicken

  1. 3

    Preheat Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  2. 4

    Grill the Chicken

    Remove chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade. Place chicken breasts on the grill and cook for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

Preparing Seasonal Vegetables

  1. 5

    Prepare the Vegetables

    In a large bowl, combine sliced zucchini, bell peppers, and asparagus. Drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and black pepper. Toss until all vegetables are coated.

  2. 6

    Grill the Vegetables

    Place the seasoned vegetables on the grill. Grill for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are tender and have nice grill marks.

Serving

  1. 7

    Plate the Dish

    Once the chicken and vegetables are cooked, remove them from the grill. Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing. Serve the sliced chicken alongside the grilled seasonal vegetables.
