Method
Marinade Preparation
Prepare the Marinade
In a medium bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Whisk until well blended.
Marinate the Chicken
Place the chicken breasts in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring it is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight for maximum flavor.
Grilling
Preheat the Grill
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F to 400°F or 190°C to 200°C).
Grill the Chicken
Remove the chicken from the marinade and let any excess marinade drip off. Place the chicken breasts on the grill. Grill for 6-7 minutes on one side without moving them.
Flip and Finish
Flip the chicken breasts and grill for an additional 6-7 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the juices run clear. Remove from the grill.
