Method
Preparation
Prepare the Marinade
In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until well blended.
Marinate the Chicken
Place the chicken breasts into a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, making sure each piece is coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for more flavor.
Cooking
Preheat the Grill or Oven
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Cook the Chicken
Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade. Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side, or bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
Garnish and Serve
If using, chop fresh parsley and sprinkle over the cooked chicken. Serve with lemon wedges on the side for an extra burst of flavor.
