Marinated Grilled Chicken

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

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

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Place the chicken breasts in a zip-lock bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for best flavor.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Grill

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. If using a grill pan, heat it on the stove over medium-high heat.

  4. 4

    Grill the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade. Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

  5. 5

    Grill the Vegetables

    While the chicken is grilling, toss the seasonal vegetables with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper. Grill them for about 4-5 minutes, turning occasionally, until tender and slightly charred.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove the chicken and vegetables from the grill. Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing. Serve the grilled chicken with the seasonal vegetables on the side.
