Marinade

Chicken

Method

Marinade Preparation

  1. 1

    Combine Marinade Ingredients

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

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Place the chicken breasts in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring each piece is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for more flavor.

Grilling the Chicken

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill on medium-high heat for about 10 minutes.

  2. 4

    Grill the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the marinade and let any excess marinade drip off. Place the chicken on the hot grill. Grill for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the chicken is no longer pink in the center.

  3. 5

    Rest and Serve

    Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes. Slice and serve with your favorite sides.
