Method
Preparation
- 1
Marinate the Chicken
In a bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken breast and coat it evenly. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

Cook the Chicken
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and no longer pink in the center. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
