Ingredients

  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • 1 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 medium lemon, juiced
  • 2 teaspoons crushed garlic
  • 1 ½ teaspoons black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 teaspoon paprika

Directions

Step 1
Cut three slits in each chicken breast to allow marinade to penetrate. Place chicken into a large bowl.

Step 2
Whisk oil, lemon juice, garlic, pepper, salt, and paprika together for about 30 seconds. Pour over chicken; use your hands to work marinade into chicken. Cover and refrigerate, 8 hours to overnight.

Step 3
Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.

Step 4
Cook chicken on the preheated grill until meat is no longer pink and juices run clear, 10 to 12 minutes, flipping halfway through. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
