Ingredients
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 1 lemon juiced & zested
- 3 cloves garlic grated
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 ½ teaspoons dried oregano*
- ½ teaspoon dried thyme*
- ½ teaspoon dried rosemary*
- 1 ½ lbs chicken breasts or thighs
Instructions
- In a medium bowl or zip bag, combine the olive oil with lemon juice and zest, garlic, oregano, thyme, rosemary, salt, and black pepper.
- Add the chicken to the marinade, mix to coat, and seal. Refrigerate for 20 minutes or up to 4 hours.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat up the olive oil. Place the chicken breasts on a skillet and cook, for 5-7 minutes on each side, until the chicken is cooked through at an internal temperature of 165F. Discard chicken marinade.
- Remove the chicken and let it rest 5 to 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
- If you'd like to use fresh herbs instead of dried ones, combine 1 tablespoon fresh oregano + 2 teaspoons fresh thyme + 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped.
- The nutritional information below includes chicken breasts.
