  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves (1-1/4 to 1-1/2 lb. total)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon snipped fresh oregano or 1 tsp. dried oregano, crushed
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

1. Place chicken in a resealable plastic bag set in shallow dish. For marinade, in small bowl combine lemon juice, oil, oregano, garlic, and pepper. Pour over chicken. Seal bag; turn to coat chicken. Marinate, refrigerated for 4 to 24 hours, turning bag occasionally.
