Marinade

Chicken

Method

Marinating Chicken

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a mixing bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

  2. 2

    Marinate Chicken

    Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Seal the bag or cover the dish, then refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, preferably 2 hours for better flavor.

Preparing Vegetables

  1. 3

    Prepare Vegetables

    While the chicken is marinating, wash and slice the bell peppers, zucchini, and red onion. Set aside.

Grilling

  1. 4

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F to 400°F).

  2. 5

    Grill the Chicken

    Remove the chicken breasts from the marinade and discard the remaining marinade. Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.

  3. 6

    Grill the Vegetables

    In a bowl, toss the sliced vegetables with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Grill the vegetables on a grill basket or skewers for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally until they are tender and slightly charred.

Serving

  1. 7

    Serve

    Once the chicken and vegetables are grilled, remove them from the grill and let the chicken rest for a few minutes. Serve the grilled chicken with the seasonal vegetables on the side.
