Instructions
- Step 1: In a bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice, 2 tbsp chopped fresh oregano, 6 minced garlic cloves, 1/4 cup olive oil, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper to make the marinade.
- Step 2: Place 4 chicken breasts in a resealable bag and pour marinade over them. Seal and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Step 3: Preheat oven to 425°F. Toss 1 lb halved baby potatoes with 1 tbsp chopped rosemary, 1 tbsp olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Spread on a baking sheet.
- Step 4: Roast potatoes in the oven for 25 minutes until golden and crispy, turning once halfway through.
- Step 5: While potatoes roast, heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove chicken breasts from marinade and grill for 6-7 minutes per side until internal temperature reaches 165°F and juices run clear.
- Step 6: Let chicken rest 5 minutes before slicing. Serve alongside the roasted garlic potatoes.
