Ingredients
- 4 chicken breasts boneless, skinless
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon dried oregano
- 1 tablespoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1 lemon juice
- Salt and pepper to taste
Optional:

Instructions
- In a bowl, mix together the olive oil, minced garlic, oregano, thyme, rosemary, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
- Place the chicken breasts in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag, then pour the marinade over the chicken, coating each piece evenly. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or ideally overnight for best flavor.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Remove the chicken from the marinade and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or foil.
- Bake the chicken in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the chicken is cooked through.
- If desired, you can broil the chicken for an extra 2-3 minutes at the end to give it a nice golden brown color.
- Serve the Greek Chicken hot, garnished with sliced lemon and fresh herbs if desired. Enjoy!
