Method
Preparation
- 1
Marinate the Chicken
In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, minced garlic cloves, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Place the chicken breasts in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- 2
Prepare the Grill/Pan
Preheat a grill or a frying pan over medium-high heat. If using a frying pan, add a little olive oil to prevent sticking.
Cooking
- 3
Cook the Chicken
Remove the chicken from the marinade and let excess marinade drip off. Place the chicken breasts on the grill or frying pan. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the chicken is golden brown.
- 4
Rest the Chicken
Once cooked, remove the chicken breasts from the heat and let them rest for 5 minutes before slicing. This helps retain the juices.
Serving
- 5
Plate the Dish
Slice the chicken breasts and arrange them on a plate. Optionally, you can serve with fresh lettuce, sliced tomato, and avocado on the side. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley for added flavor.
