Ingredients
– 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

– 4 cloves garlic, minced
– 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 1 teaspoon dried oregano
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Wooden or metal skewers, soaked if wooden
Instructions
1. In a small bowl, mix the lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, chopped parsley, olive oil, dried oregano, salt, and pepper to create the marinade.
2. Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Seal the bag or cover the dish, and marinate the chicken in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or up to 4 hours.
3. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grates.
4. Remove the chicken breasts from the marinade and thread them onto skewers, if desired, to make them easier to handle on the grill.
5. Grill the chicken breasts for 6-8 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through and no longer pink in the center, and have beautiful grill marks.
6. Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.
