Ingredients You Will Need
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts

- Juice and zest of 2 lemons
- 4 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon dried oregano
- 1 tablespoon dried thyme
- Salt and pepper, to taste

Preparation Steps
- Marinate the Chicken: In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper. Place the chicken breasts in a resealable bag or a shallow dish, and pour the marinade over the chicken. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (up to 4 hours for best flavor).
