Marinated chicken tenders with Greek herbs and lemon, grilled or baked to juicy, aromatic perfection.

# Ingredients List:

→ Marinade

01 - 3 tablespoons olive oil

02 - 4 cloves garlic, minced

03 - 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice

04 - 2 teaspoons dried oregano

05 - 1 teaspoon salt

08 - 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 pounds)

# How to Make It:

01 - In a large bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, dried oregano, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika. Whisk thoroughly to emulsify.

02 - Place chicken breasts into the marinade and ensure each piece is completely coated. Cover and refrigerate for a minimum of 30 minutes or up to 4 hours for enhanced flavor.

03 - Preheat grill to medium-high heat or set oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).

04 - Grill or bake chicken breasts for 6 to 7 minutes per side until golden and cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit (75 degrees Celsius).

05 - Allow chicken to rest for 5 minutes prior to slicing. Plate and serve with preferred accompaniments.

# Extra Information:

01 - For optimal results, do not skip the resting period, as it ensures the juices evenly redistribute throughout the chicken.
