Herb-Grilled Lemon Chicken Breast

This Herb-Grilled Lemon Chicken Breast recipe combines the classic flavors of grilled chicken with a refreshing twist from zesty lemon and aromatic herbs. The chicken is marinated to enhance its juiciness and tenderness, making it a perfect low-carb, gluten-free, and dairy-free dish that is both satisfying and healthy.

Ingredients:

• 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• Juice of 1 lemon
• 1 teaspoon lemon zest
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions:

1. In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper.
2. Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish and pour the marinade over the chicken. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for maximum flavor.
3. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard any leftover marinade.
4. Grill the chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the chicken is nicely charred.
5. Remove the chicken from the grill, let it rest for a few minutes, then slice and serve garnished with fresh parsley.
