Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Marinade
In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup of olive oil, juice of 1 lemon, minced garlic cloves, 1 tsp of salt, 1 tsp of black pepper, and 2 tbs of dried oregano. Whisk together until well mixed.
Marinate the Chicken
Place the chicken breasts in a large zip-lock bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring all pieces are well coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to 4 hours for best flavor.
Preheat the Grill
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (approximately 400°F or 200°C).
Grill the Chicken
Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard the marinade. Place the chicken on the grill and 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.
Garnish and Serve
Once grilled, remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
