Cooking Instructions
- 1
Prepare the Chicken
Start by patting the chicken breasts dry with a paper towel. This helps the seasoning to stick better.
- 2
Marinate
In a bowl, mix olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Add the chicken breasts and coat them well with the marinade. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator for better flavor.

Cook the Chicken
Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated chicken breasts. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the chicken is no longer pink in the center.

Rest and Serve
Remove the chicken from the grill or skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute. Slice the chicken and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
