4 chicken breasts (skin removed)

1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

2 cloves garlic

2 sprigs rosemary (1 tbsp chopped)

1 tbsp chopped basil

2 tspns chopped thyme

1 fresh lemon

pinch of chill flakes (optional)

pinch of sea salt

pinch of ground black pepper

Directions

 

 

1. Gently pound the chicken breasts so that they are an even thickness as this will ensure they cook evenly and stay moist and tender.

2. Season both sides of the chicken breasts with a pinch of sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.

3. Combine olive oil, lemon juice and herbs in a bowl and set aside.

4. Dip chicken breasts in the marinade, turning to coat both sides.

5. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 1 and 1/2 hours.

6. Remove chicken from plastic wrap and grill chicken for a few minutes on each side until cooked through and tender.

7. Serve with your choice of vegetables or a simple light salad.

 

Enjoy!
