2 servings

  • 2 (8 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breasts
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 0.25 cup olive oil
  • 0.25 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 0.5 teaspoon dried oregano, or more to taste
  • 0.25 teaspoon dried thyme, or more to taste

Instructions

  • Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper on all sides and place in a bowl or lidded container. Combine olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, and thyme in a small bowl and pour marinade over chicken breasts. Marinate for 10 minutes at room temperature.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Set one oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source.
  • Place chicken breasts into a baking dish and pour marinade on top.
