Ingredients

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

Directions

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).

Nutrition Disclaimer:

The nutrition data for this recipe includes the full amount of the marinade ingredients. The actual amount of the marinade consumed will vary.

Cook's Note:

If grill not available place chicken breasts in broiler pan and broil in the oven for 5 minutes on each side.
