Step by step

Method

4 steps

1. 1

   Whisk the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper in a shallow dish or zip-top bag.

2. 2

   Add the chicken and turn it through the marinade. Cover and chill for 30 minutes, or up to 8 hours. Take it out while the skillet heats.

3. 3

   Warm a large skillet over medium heat. Lift the chicken out, letting excess marinade drip away, and cook in batches for 5–7 minutes per side, until browned and 165°F in the thickest part.

4. 4

   Move the chicken to a board and rest it for 5 minutes before slicing. Spoon any pan juices over the top and serve.
