Preparation and Grilling

Marinate the Chicken
In a large bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Add the chicken breasts to the bowl, ensuring they are well coated in the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for more flavor.
