Ingredients

  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts
  • 2 lemons juiced (1/2 cup)

  • 2 teaspoons lemon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil

  • ¼ teaspoon salt
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Place chicken breasts in a gallon-size resealable plastic bag. Pour in lemon juice, olive oil, lemon pepper, basil, oregano, and salt. Shake it a bit so all the chicken tenders get covered.
  • Let marinate in the fridge for 30 minutes or up to 8 hours.
  • Heat a heavy skillet over medium high heat.
  • Remove the chicken from the marinade and place directly into the hot skillet. Discard any remaining marinade.
  • Cook chicken 6 to 7 minutes per side, flipping halfway through. Continue cooking until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Serve hot. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and lemon slices (optional).
