Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Mix well to create a marinade.

  2. 2

    Coat the Chicken

    Place the chicken breasts in the bowl with the marinade. Ensure each piece is well coated. Cover and let marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator for more flavor).

Grilling

  1. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F or 190°C).

  2. 4

    Grill the Chicken

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

  3. 5

    Rest the Chicken

    Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing or serving.

Serving

  1. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Slice the grilled chicken and garnish with fresh parsley and lemon wedges if desired. Serve immediately.
