Description
A flavorful and aromatic grilled chicken dish infused with Mediterranean spices and fresh ingredients.
Ingredients
- 4 chicken breasts (2 lbs total)
- 6 tablespoons olive oil
- 6 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 6 large garlic cloves (minced)
- 6 tablespoons fresh minced parsley
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 ½ teaspoons dried oregano
- Salt and pepper to season
Instructions
- In a large plastic food storage bag, combine olive oil, lemon juice, parsley, garlic, paprika, and oregano. Mix thoroughly.
- Make small slices on each chicken breast or pierce them with a fork. Generously season with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Place seasoned chicken in the plastic bag with the marinade. Seal the bag and mix until evenly coated.
- Refrigerate for a minimum of 20 minutes or up to two days.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
- Remove chicken from the bag and discard excess marinade. Grill for 5-6 minutes on each side, or until internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Notes
For best results, let the chicken marinate longer. Use high-quality olive oil and avoid crowding the grill.
