Method
Marinade Preparation
Prepare the Marinade
In a bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
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 well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 4 hours for best flavor).
Grilling
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. 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 in the center.
Rest the Chicken
Once cooked, transfer the chicken breasts to a plate and let them rest for 5 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring a juicy chicken breast.
