Total Cook Time: 30 minutes
Ingredients
1kg boneless & skinless chicken breasts
1 large lemon zest and juice of
2 tbsp olive oil
3 garlic cloves grated
2 tsp oregano dried
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
Directions
- Cut chicken breasts into halves lengthwise to make them thinner.
- Marinate 30 mins-24 hrs. Place in a large bowl along with olive oil, garlic, lemon juice and zest, oregano, salt and pepper. Stir with tongs and let sit for 30 minutes.
- Preheat grill on medium-high (230-260 degrees C) and rub with oiled paper towel. Place chicken on the grill, close the lid and grill for 8-10 minutes turning once. Do not overcook. Chicken is done when instant read thermometer reads 75 degrees C. Or I usually cut in with a knife and if juices are no longer pink – grilled chicken is ready.
- Remove from the grill, cover with foil and let rest for 5 minutes. This allows juices to settle inside the meat and not outside on our plate. Making juicy grilled chicken.
