Grilled Chicken Breasts

Ingredients

• •4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 lbs)
• •2 tbsp olive oil
• •2 tsp garlic powder
• •2 tsp dried oregano
• •1 tsp salt
• •1/2 tsp black pepper
• •1 lemon (juiced)
• •2 cups mixed vegetables (e.g. bell peppers, zucchini, and broccoli)
• •1 tbsp balsamic vinegar (optional)

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

2. 2

   In a small bowl, mix olive oil, garlic powder, oregano, salt, pepper, and lemon juice to create a marinade.

3. 3

   Place the chicken breasts in a large zip-top bag and pour the marinade over them. Seal the bag and ensure the chicken is well coated. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.

4. 4

   While the chicken is marinating, prepare your mixed vegetables by washing and chopping them into bite-sized pieces.

5. 5

   Grill the chicken for 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

6. 6

   During the last few minutes of grilling, add the mixed vegetables to the grill and cook until they're tender and slightly charred, about 5-7 minutes.

7. 7

   Remove the chicken and vegetables from the grill. Let the chicken rest for a few minutes before slicing it.

8. 8

   Serve the grilled chicken alongside the grilled veggies, drizzling with balsamic vinegar if desired.
