Citrus & Herb Chicken Breast
Ingredients (Serves 4)

Chicken & Marinade

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
Juice of 1 lemon
Juice of 1 orange
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves
1 tbsp fresh rosemary, finely chopped
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp honey (optional, for balance)
1 tsp paprika
Salt and black pepper, to taste
Method
Marinate the chicken
Mix olive oil, citrus juices, garlic, herbs, spices, honey, salt, and pepper.
Coat chicken breasts and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 4 hours.
Cook the chicken
Grill: Cook over medium-high heat for about 6–8 minutes per side.
Pan-sear: Sear in a hot skillet for 5–6 minutes per side until golden.
Bake: Roast at 200°C (400°F) for about 20–25 minutes.
Rest and serve
Let chicken rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Spoon over any pan juices and garnish with fresh herbs.
Serving ideas
Serve with roasted vegetables, couscous, quinoa, or a crisp salad.
Pair with a yogurt-herb sauce or a drizzle of extra lemon.
Slice leftovers for wraps, grain bowls, or salads.
Tips for juicy chicken
Pound thicker chicken breasts to an even thickness before cooking.
Avoid over-marinating in citrus for more than a few hours, as the acidity can affect the texture.
Use a thermometer and cook until the center reaches 74°C (165°F).
