Ingredients
  

  • 3 large chicken breast cut in half (through the middle) to make 6 thinner breast
  • 1 lemon zested and juiced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp minced garlic
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp dried thyme
  • 1/4 tsp rosemary
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 1/2 tsp parsley
  • 1/4 tsp paprika

Let's Make It
 

  • Slice the chicken in half (through the middle) to make 6 thiner breast. Doing this allows for the chicken to cook faster and helps to avoid drying out the chicken.
  • Add all of the ingredients in to a ziplock bag or bowl and mix well. Add the chicken to the bag- giving it a good toss to make sure all the breast are coated well.
  • Let the chicken marinate for 1-3 hours.
  • Prepare on grill, in the oven, air fryer or crockoot.
  • ****Can substitute for chicken thighs!
