Time 8h20m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

¼ cup lemon juice
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon ground oregano
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
4 (4 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves

Steps:

  • Mix lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, oregano, salt, and black pepper in a bowl; pour into a sealable plastic bag. Add the chicken to the bag, coat with the marinade, and squeeze air from the bag before sealing. Refrigerate 8 hours to overnight.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Remove chicken from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade.
  • Cook chicken on hot grill until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
