Chicken is a staple in our home. It's less expensive than beef. It's lean (which is important for my houseful of athletes!). It's versatile. It's also filling. These Mediterranean spiced chicken breasts are so good that my children often request it for dinner. Also, if you make extra, you can shred it and freeze it for later use. It's great as a salad topper.
6 6 oz boneless, skinless chicken breasts
9 Tbsp lemon juice
9 Tbsp olive oil
10 garlic cloves
2 1/2 tsp paprika
2 tsp dried oregano
Salt and pepper, to taste
You're also going to need a couple of large freezer bags since there are six pieces of chicken. Divide up the lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper into each freezer bag. This is going to be your marinade. Use a knife and poke some holes into each piece of chicken. This allows the marinade to soak into the meat. Next, place the chicken into the bags. Shut the bags and allow the chicken to marinate for at least two hours in the refrigerator. It's really good if you can do this the day before you plan to use the chicken. Once the chicken it marinated, you can cook it on the grill, the stove top, or bake it in the oven.
