Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces chicken breasts
- 1 medium red bell pepper
- 1 medium green bell pepper
- 1 medium yellow bell pepper
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
Instructions
Place the chicken breasts between two sheets of plastic wrap and pound to an even thickness.
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, oregano, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice.
Pour the marinade over the chicken breasts in a shallow dish, ensuring they are evenly coated. Marinate for at least 15 minutes.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
While the grill is heating, slice the red, green, and yellow bell peppers into strips.
Place the marinated chicken breasts and bell pepper strips on the grill. Cook the chicken for about 6-7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the chicken is thoroughly cooked.
Grill the bell peppers alongside the chicken, turning occasionally, until they are tender and slightly charred.
Remove chicken and bell peppers from the grill and let the chicken rest for a few minutes.
Slice the chicken and serve with the grilled bell peppers.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
