🥘 Ingredients(4 servings)

  • 600g Chicken breast(boneless, skinless)
  • 3 tbsp Olive oil
  • 4 Garlic cloves(minced)
  • 3 tbsp Fresh parsley(chopped)
  • 1 tsp Fresh thyme
  • 2 tbsp Lemon juice
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • ½ tsp Black pepper
  • 1 tsp Paprika

📋 Instructions

  1. 1

    Pat chicken breasts dry with paper towels. Season generously with salt, pepper, and paprika on both sides.

    Dry chicken browns better and stays juicy.
  2. 2

    Mix olive oil, minced garlic, parsley, thyme, and lemon juice in a bowl to make the marinade.

  3. 3

    Coat chicken in half the marinade. Let rest 5 minutes (or up to 30 minutes for deeper flavor).

  4. 4

    Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Add a little oil and grill chicken 6–7 minutes per side until cooked through (internal temp 74°C/165°F).

    Don't move the chicken while it's cooking — this creates those beautiful grill marks.
  5. 5

    Remove from heat, rest 3 minutes, then drizzle remaining herb garlic sauce over the top before serving.

💡 Expert Tips

  • Pound chicken breasts to even thickness for consistent cooking.
  • Let the meat rest before slicing to keep juices inside.
  • Pairs well with roasted vegetables or a green salad for a complete meal.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days — great for meal prep.
