Chicken Marinade
Method
Marinating the Chicken
Prepare the Marinade
In a bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
Marinate the Chicken
Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or 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 30 minutes, preferably 2-4 hours for better flavor.
Grilling the Chicken
Preheat the Grill
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Grill the Chicken
Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the leftover marinade. Place the chicken on the grill and cook 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.
Rest and Serve
Once done, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve hot with your favorite sides.
