Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Organic chicken breasts
- 6 cloves Garlic cloves
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons Fresh rosemary
- 1 teaspoon Sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Coconut aminos
Instructions
Begin by preparing the marinade. Mince the garlic cloves and place them in a large mixing bowl.
Add the olive oil, lemon juice, rosemary, sea salt, black pepper, and coconut aminos to the minced garlic. Mix the ingredients well to combine.
Place the chicken breasts in the marinade, turning them over to ensure they are thoroughly coated. Cover the bowl and allow the chicken to marinate for at least 20 minutes. For deeper flavor, marinate for up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.
Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Once hot, add the marinated chicken breasts to the skillet. Cook each side for 5-7 minutes or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C).
Remove the chicken from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve the Paleo Garlic Chicken with your choice of sides, such as roasted vegetables or a fresh salad.
