Ingredients
  • ¼ cup lemon juice
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic, about 2 medium cloves
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper
  • ½ teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts or chicken thighs
Instructions
  1. Marinate the chicken:
  2. Combine all marinade ingredients in zip seal plastic bag. Add chicken to the bag and seal. Place in the refrigerator and let chicken marinate overnight. If you're crunched for time, even thirty minutes of marinating will impart delicious flavor into your chicken.
  3. Grill the chicken:
  4. Preheat burners on your gas grill to high, then adjust heat to medium. Turn off 1 burner and arrange chicken breasts or thighs on lightly oiled rack above it. Cook, covered with lid, turning only once, until cooked through, about 30-40 minutes total.
  5. Note:
  6. This recipe can yield anywhere from two to four servings depending on your appetite and leftovers keep for up to three days and can be easily repurposed into salads or sandwiches.
