Prepare the Chicken

    Make the Marinade

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill for 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked.

    Once cooked, let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing it into strips.
