Preheat your oven's broiler to high heat and position the rack about 6 inches from the heat source.
Pat dry the chicken breasts with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, dried oregano, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to form a marinade.
Place the chicken breasts in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over them. Turn the chicken to coat it thoroughly with the marinade.
Allow the chicken to marinate for at least 10 minutes at room temperature.
Line a broiler pan or a baking sheet with aluminum foil and lightly grease it with olive oil to prevent sticking.
Remove the chicken breasts from the marinade and place them on the prepared broiler pan. Discard any leftover marinade.
Broil the chicken for about 6 to 7 minutes on each side, or until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165Β°F (74Β°C).
Once cooked, remove the chicken from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve the soy-free broiled chicken with your choice of side dishes such as steamed vegetables or a fresh salad.
