Step by step

Method

4 steps

1. 1

   Stir the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. The mixture will look loose and fragrant.

2. 2

   Lay in the chicken and turn each piece until coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or overnight for a deeper garlic note.

3. 3

   Heat a wide skillet over medium. Let the excess marinade drip off, then cook the chicken 5–7 minutes on the first side and 5–7 minutes on the second, until browned and 165°F inside.

4. 4

   Rest the cooked chicken for 5 minutes, then slice across the grain. Spoon the juices from the plate over each serving.
