Chicken Marinade
Grilled Chicken
Method
Prepare Chicken Marinade
Mix the Marinade
In a mixing bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper. Whisk until well blended.
Marinate the Chicken
Place the chicken breasts into a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight.
Grill the Chicken
Preheat the Grill
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, about 375°F (190°C).
Grill the Chicken
Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the leftover marinade. Place the chicken breasts on the grill and cook for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
Rest and Garnish
Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes. Before serving, sprinkle with paprika and chopped fresh parsley. Serve with lemon wedges on the side.
