Ingredients

Servings
  • ¼ cup olive oil 2 tablespoons
  • ¼ cup red wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon oregano dried
  • 1 teaspoon basil dried
  • ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper ground
  • 4 chicken breast boneless skinless
  • parsley chopped, to garnish
  • lemon wedges, to garnish

Instructions

  1. In a medium glass bowl, combine the ingredients for marination; 1/4 cup olive oil, red wine vinegar, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, basil, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Mix it well until well combined.
  2. Add the chicken breasts to the marination and allow the chicken to marinate for at least 1 hour or overnight.
  3. Heat a large skillet (preferably a grill pan) on medium heat, and add the remaining two tablespoons of olive oil.

  5. Transfer the cooked chicken to a plate and serve the chicken with some veggies on the side.
