This recipe offers a flavorful and easy-to-make marinade for chicken, combining zesty and aromatic ingredients for a delightful meal.
Combine the ground black pepper, sea salt, fresh ginger, minced garlic, olive oil, and lemon juice in a mixing bowl.
Whisk the ingredients thoroughly to ensure the flavors are evenly distributed.
Make small incisions in the chicken breasts using a knife.
This helps the marinade penetrate deeper into the chicken for more flavor.
Rub the marinade all over the chicken breasts, ensuring they are well coated.
Massage the marinade into the chicken for better absorption.
Place the chicken in a glass dish, cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
The longer the chicken marinates, the more flavorful it will be.
Cook the chicken on a preheated grill or in the oven until fully cooked, about 6-8 minutes per side.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Serve the chicken hot with your favorite sides and enjoy.
Garnish with fresh herbs or a slice of lemon for a vibrant presentation.
