This herb-infused lemon grilled chicken recipe is a delightful twist on a classic dish, combining fresh herbs and citrus for a flavorful and juicy result.
Combine the olive oil, minced garlic, chopped basil, parsley, oregano, and the juice of the lemons in a mixing bowl.
Use freshly squeezed lemon juice for the best flavor.
Place the chicken breasts in the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
For deeper flavor, marinate the chicken overnight.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade and let any excess drip off.
Oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Grill the chicken for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure the chicken is cooked perfectly.
Serve the grilled chicken with a garnish of fresh herbs and lemon slices.
Serve with a side of grilled vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
