In a medium bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped parsley, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Place the chicken tenderloins in a large resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the chicken, seal the bag, and shake to coat the chicken evenly.
Refrigerate the chicken for at least 30 minutes up to 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. If using a grilling rack, oil the grates lightly to prevent sticking.
Remove the chicken from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before grilling.
Place the chicken tenderloins on the grill, spacing them evenly. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165Β°F (75Β°C) and the juices run clear.
Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving to retain juiciness.
Garnish with additional chopped parsley if desired and serve immediately with your favorite keto-friendly side dishes.
