1
Prepare the Marinade
In a bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
2
Marinate the Chicken
Place the chicken breasts in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, making sure each piece is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 8 hours for more flavor.

3
Preheat the 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 6-8 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the chicken has nice grill marks.
5
Rest and Serve
Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve warm with your favorite side dishes.
