In a small bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, rosemary, thyme, oregano, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Place the chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring the chicken is evenly coated.
Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap, and let the chicken marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours for enhanced flavor.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly coat the grates with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Remove the chicken from the marinade and discard any excess liquid.
Place the chicken breasts on the grill and cook for 6-8 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165Β°F (74Β°C).
Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Serve the grilled herbed chicken with your favorite side dishes for a complete, low-point meal.
