Lemon Herb Grilled Chicken Breasts

1.In a small bowl, combine the minced garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, dried oregano, dried thyme, and dried rosemary. Mix well to create a marinade.

2.Place the chicken breasts in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the chicken, ensuring each piece is well coated. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

3.Cover the dish or seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to infuse the chicken. For best results, marinate for 2-4 hours.

4.Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.

5.Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing any excess to drip off. Place the chicken breasts on the preheated grill.

6.Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the chicken is cooked through.

7.Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring moist and flavorful chicken.

8.Serve the grilled chicken breasts with your choice of sides, such as a fresh salad or grilled vegetables.
