1
Marinade the Chicken
In a large bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Mix well to create a marinade.
2
Add Chicken
Add the chicken breasts to the bowl and coat them thoroughly with the marinade. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.

3
Preheat the Grill
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F/200°C).
4
Grill the Chicken
Remove the chicken from the marinade and place it on the grill. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on one side, then flip and grill for another 6-7 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
5
Rest the Chicken
Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
