- 6 Boneless Chicken Breast
- 1/4 cup Olive Oil
- 2 Lemons juiced
- 1 Tablespoon Minced Garlic
- 1/4 cup Fresh Parsley chopped
- 2 teaspoons Paprika
- 3 teaspoons Dried Oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- 1/2 teaspoon Pepper
Instructions
- Whisk all the ingredients except for the chicken in a small mixing bowl.
- Pound the chicken in between pieces of wax paper or in a ziplock bag so that they are approximately 1/4-1/2” thick.
- Place the chicken in a large bowl or large ziplock bag. Pour the marinade on top of the chicken.
- Refrigerate and allow it to marinade for at least 1 hour up to 12 hours.
- Then preheat your grill over medium high heat (approximately 400 degrees F).
- Rub the grill grates with oil so that the chicken does not stick.
- Place the chicken directly on the grill grate and cook for 6-7 minutes per side until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees F.
- Remove the chicken from the grill, let the chicken rest for 5 minutes. Then the chicken is ready to slice, serve and enjoy!
Notes
Use an instant-read meat thermometer to make sure that the chicken is cooked to a safe temperature before removing it from the grill.
Refrigerate the leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
