1
Mix Marinade Ingredients
In a mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well blended.

2
Marinate the Chicken
Place the chicken breasts in a large zip-lock bag or a 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 1 hour, or overnight for best flavor.

3
Preheat Grill
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375°F to 450°F).
4
Grill the Chicken
Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade. Place the chicken on the grill and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the chicken has nice grill marks.
5
Rest the Chicken
Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing or serving. This allows the juices to redistribute for a more flavorful bite.
