Grilled Chicken Ingredients
Method
Grilled Chicken Directions
- 1
Prepare the Marinade
In a bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, dried oregano, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
- 2
Marinate the Chicken
Place the chicken breasts in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring each piece is thoroughly coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 4 hours for maximum flavor.

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 discard the marinade. Place the chicken on the grill and cook for 6 to 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 Garnish
Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
