Method
Preparation
Prepare the Marinade
In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well blended.
Marinate the Chicken
Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or a 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, or up to 4 hours for more flavor.
Cooking
Preheat the Grill
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F to 450°F or 190°C to 232°C).
Grill the Chicken
Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade. Place the chicken breasts on the preheated grill. Grill for about 6-7 minutes on one side.
Flip and Continue Cooking
Flip the chicken breasts and grill for an additional 6-7 minutes on the other side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
Rest and Slice
Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute for a juicier chicken.
