Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Mix well until blended.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Place the chicken breasts in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring all pieces are well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for better flavor.

  3. 3

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using a charcoal grill, ensure the coals are evenly distributed.

  4. 4

    Grill the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the 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.

  5. 5

    Garnish and Serve

    Once grilled, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
