Instructions

Step 1: In a bowl, combine 3 tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp chopped fresh rosemary, 1 tbsp chopped fresh thyme, 3 minced garlic cloves, 2 tbsp lemon juice, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper; whisk until well mixed.
Step 2: Place 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts in a resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over them, ensuring all pieces are coated; seal and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 4 hours.
Step 3: Preheat grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F). Remove chicken from marinade and discard excess marinade.
Step 4: Grill chicken breasts for 6-7 minutes per side, turning once, until internal temperature reaches 165°F and juices run clear.
Step 5: Remove from grill and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing to allow juices to redistribute.
