Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a large bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic cloves, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using). Whisk until well combined.

  2. 2

    Add Chicken

    Add the chicken breasts to the bowl and ensure they are well coated with the marinade. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Cook Chicken

    Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken breasts to the skillet, discarding excess marinade. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is no longer pink in the center and has a golden-brown crust.

  2. 4

    Garnish

    Once cooked, remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
