Instructions

In a bowl, combine lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper.
Place chicken breasts in the marinade, coat well, and let sit for at least 30 minutes.
Preheat a skillet over medium heat and cook the marinated chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side or until fully cooked.
Remove from heat and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve warm.

Notes

For extra flavor, marinate the chicken longer if time allows. Use hot skillet for best sear.
