1
Prepare the Marinade
In a bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Whisk until well blended.
2
Marinate the Chicken
Place the chicken breasts in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring each piece is well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for maximum 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 6-7 minutes on one side until grill marks appear. Flip the chicken and grill for an additional 6-7 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
5
Rest the Chicken
Once cooked, remove the chicken from the grill and allow it to rest for 5 minutes before slicing or serving.
